Lab-on-a-chip device made by autohesion-bonded polymers [PDF]
Polymers have the obvious advantages of flexibility in design and cost effectiveness to fabricate a lab-on-a-chip (LOC) device. Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) in particular is very attractive choice as it adds biocompatibility in addition to the possibility of hematic sealing in a 3D design.
