Testing standards are more fundamental from a metrological perspective and less controversial from an industrial perspective than product standards, representing a path of less resistance towards the standardization and commercialization of lab on a chip technology. In this Focus article, the development of a lab on a chip testing standard is considered in the context of autofluorescence. This material property of microfluidic and nanofluidic devices is of increasing importance due to the growing interest in sensitive fluorescence measurements performed in chips fabricated from plastics.
从计量学的角度来看,测试标准比产品标准更为基础,从工业的角度来看,也比产品标准争议性更小,是通向微流控芯片技术标准化和商业化的阻力更小的道路。在本文中,我们从自动荧光的角度来考虑微流控芯片测试标准的发展。由于人们对在由塑料制成的芯片上进行的灵敏荧光测量越来越感兴趣,因此微流控和纳流控器件的这种材料特性变得越来越重要。
