Description

Multidisciplinary Microfluidic and Nanofluidic Lab-on-a-Chip: Principles and Applications provides chemists, biophysicists, engineers, life scientists, biotechnologists, and pharmaceutical scientists with the principles behind the design, manufacture, and testing of life sciences microfluidic systems. This book serves as a reference for technologies and applications in multidisciplinary areas, with an emphasis on quickly developing or new emerging areas, including digital microfluidics, nanofluidics, papers-based microfluidics, and cell biology. The book offers practical guidance on how to design, analyze, fabricate, and test microfluidic devices and systems for a wide variety of applications including separations, disease detection, cellular analysis, DNA analysis, proteomics, and drug delivery. Calculations, solved problems, data tables, and design rules are provided to help researchers understand microfluidic basic theory and principles and apply this knowledge to their own unique designs. Recent advances in microfluidics and microsystems for life sciences are impacting chemistry, biophysics, molecular, cell biology, and medicine for applications that include DNA analysis, drug discovery, disease research, and biofluid and environmental monitoring.

About the Author
XiuJun (James) Li, Ph.D., is an Associate Professor with early tenure in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Biomedical Engineering, and Border Biomedical Research Center at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), USA. After he obtained his Ph.D. degree in microfluidic lab-on-a-chip bioanalysis from Simon Fraser University (SFU) in Canada in 2008, he pursued his postdoctoral research with Prof. Richard Mathies at University of California Berkeley and Prof. George Whitesides at Harvard University, while holding a Postdoctoral Fellowship from Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) of Canada. He has gained extensive experience in bioanalysis using microfluidic systems, such as single-cell analysis, genetic analysis, low-cost diagnosis, pathogen detection, 3D cell culture, and so on. Dr. Li's current research interest is centered on the development of innovative microfluidic lab-on-a-chip and nanotechnology for bioanalysis, biomaterial, biomedical engineering, and environmental applications, including but not limited to low-cost diagnosis, nano-biosensing, tissue engineering, and single-cell analysis. He has coauthored about 100 publications in high-impact journals (such as Adv. Drug Deliv. Rev, Appl. Catal. B-Environ, Anal. Chem., Lab Chip, Biosens. Bioelectron.) and 22 patents, including two books from Elsevier on microfluidic devices for biomedical applications. He is an Advisory Board member of Lab on a Chip and Analyst, the Founder of microBioChip Diagnostics LLC, and an editor of 6 journals including Scientific Reports from the Nature publishing group, Micromachines, etc. He is the recipient of the "Bioanalysis New Investigator Award" in 2014, UT STARS Award in 2012, NSERC Postdoctoral Fellow Award in 2009, and so on. For more information, please visit http://li.utep.edu. Dr. Chaoyong Yang received his PhD from University of Florida in 2006 under the guidance of Professor Weihong Tan. He joined Professor Richard Mathies' group at the University of California, Berkeley as a postdoc. In 2008, he joined Xiamen University where he is now a Distinguished Professor in the Department of Chemical Biology. Professor Yang has published over 200 articles in international journals which have received over 11 000 citations, and is named inventor on over 40 patents. He serves as associate editor for ACS Applied Bio Materials. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry. He is the recipient of CAPA Distinguished Faculty Award in 2012, National Outstanding Young Investigator Award in 2013, Chinese Young Analyst Award in 2015, Chinese Chemical Society-Royal Society of Chemistry Young Chemist Award in 2016, and 2021 ACS Advances in Measurement Science Lectureship Award. His current research is particularly focused on bio-sensing, high throughput evolution, single cell analysis and microfluidics. Dr. Paul Li obtained his Ph.D. in analytical chemistry at the University of Toronto, and conducted postdoctoral work at the University of Alberta. Then, he developed the microfluidic lab-on-a-chip at Simon Fraser University, where he was promoted to full professor. Dr. Li is interested in integrating chip microfluidics for chemical sensing, single-cell analysis, and nucleic acid bioassay. He has been visiting professors at Johannes Gutenberg Universitat-Mainz (Germany), Griffith University (Australia) and City University of Hong Kong. Dr. Li has published several books, e.g. Fundamentals of lab on a chip for biological analysis and discovery, and Microarray Technology: Methods and Applications. He is associate editor of Canadian Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences, and sits on the editorial board of Hong Kong Pharmaceutical Journal. Dr. Li is the inventor of six patented technologies and 5 pending patents, and he is the founder of ZellChip Technologies Inc. specializing in microfluidics-based instruments and solutions.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
