Microfluidics
Microfluidics is the science to understand the behavior of fluids through micro-channels, and the technology of manufacturing microminiaturized devices containing compartments and tunnels through which fluids flow are narrowed. Microfluidics works with very lesser volumes of fluids, down to femtoliters (fL). Fluids behave very contrarily on the micrometric scale than they do in normal life: these distinctive features are significant and aimed for novel scientific experiments and inventions.
