Microfluidics
Introduction
Microfluidic technology is a valuable tool enabling complete control of the cellular microenvironment. Soft lithography description [ Fikar2015].
Soft-lithography
Soft lithography corresponds to a set of fabrication techniques that prove to be complementary to standard photolithography. An advantage of soft lithography is that it is compatible with a wide range of materials. In particular, elastomeric (i.e., mechanically soft) materials, such as PDMS, can be processed with soft lithography. Soft lithography processes enable the use of soft materials such as PDMS to create microfluidic chips.
