The material is beingdeveloped under a Type 1 NSF TUES program. Microfluidics technology provides miniaturizedfluidic networks for processing and analyzing liquids in the nanoliter to milliliter range.Typically, a microfluidic “lab on a chip” system comprises a credit-card sized plastic, glass,ceramic, or silicon substrate. A fluidic circuit of interconnected channels, conduits, chambers,filters, packed columns, valves, fluid actuators, sensors, and other components is formed bymilling, laser machining, lithography, embossing, 3D-printing, or other microfabricationtechniques. Microfluidics is of increasing importance for biomedical applications, particularlypoint-of-care medical diagnostics, as well as micro-scale chemistry, chemical sensors, anddetailed studies of biological phenomena including cellular functions, cell cultures, and cell andtissue engineering. Microfluidic devices offer many opportunities for teaching students themultidisciplinary integration of CAD, rapid prototyping, fluid mechanics, heat and masstransfer, instrumentation and control, optics, sensors, robotics, automation, machine vision,image processing, and nanotechnology. The following laboratory experiments and projects aredescribed in detail: 1) the design, rapid prototyping, and characterization of microfluidic chips,2) the development a PID microcontroller polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system for medicaldiagnostics, 3) robotic manipulation and machine vision of ferrofluids in microfluidic channels,and 4) microfluidic chips with multicolor LEDs to observe phototaxis (light-directed movement)of algae under a low-power microscope.
