  1. why minitiaturize volume of 1µL 1nL 1pL (1mm)3 (100µm)3 (10µm)3

  2. 10 fold miniaturization 100 x faster reactions / bioassays 100

    x faster separation 1000 x smaller volume 10 x lower reagent consumption
  3. human perception < 1 cm is small > 10 m

    is big < 100 ms is immediate > 1 min is slow factor 100: 100 ms to 1 ms: not impressive 17 h to 10 min: makes a difference 10 min to 6 s: very impressive

  6. drug discovery • first step to find new active molecules

    • composed of – synthesis of new compound – isolation, characterisation – bioassay • a significant effort in pharmaceutical industry, involving new technologies

    a hit? yes/no specific reaction specific bioassay
  9. Continuous flow Batch process Volume given by time Volume is

    volume of the vessel Easy up-scale / down scale Up-scale / down-scale difficult [scaling laws!] Fluid handling inherently there Robotics, valve switching or manual Interfacing of components easy: volume flow rate is the only parameter Interfacing of components may need wait times / dummy loops Different reaction times needed can be achieved by difference in length / cross-section The slowest step in the sequence defines the rhythm of switching, if multiple samples have to be processed
  10. Continuous flow Batch process Ratio of timing cannot be changed

    without changing the channel hardware Good flexibility in change of timing Not all analysis / synthesis methods are available All analysis / synthesis methods available Band broadening is critical, if different samples should travel through the system in sequence Different samples = separate batches Problem: to create a sequence of samples is a batch process!!!
