With rapid development in microflow analysis, electroosmotic pumps are receiving increasing attention. Compared to other micropumps, electroosmotic pumps have several unique features. For example, they are bi-directional, can generate constant and pulse-free flows with flow rates well suited to microanalytical systems, and can be readily integrated with lab-on-chip devices. The magnitude and the direction of flow of an electroosmotic pump can be changed instantly. In addition, electroosmotic pumps have no moving parts. In this article, we discuss common features, introduce fabrication technologies and highlight applications of electroosmotic pumps.
随着微流分析的迅速发展,电渗泵正受到越来越多的关注。与其他微型泵相比,电渗泵具有几个独特的特点。例如,它们是双向的,可以产生恒定且无脉冲的流动,流速非常适合微分析系统,并且可以很容易地与芯片实验室设备集成。电渗泵的流动大小和方向可以瞬间改变。此外,电渗泵没有运动部件。在本文中,我们讨论了电渗泵的共同特点,介绍了制造技术,并重点介绍了其应用。
