A mini-review with 79 references. In this review, the most recent trends in 3D-printed microfluidic devices are discussed. In addition, a focus is given to the fabrication aspects of these devices, with the supplemental information containing detailed instructions for designing a variety of structures including: a microfluidic channel, threads to accommodate commercial fluidic fittings, a flow splitter; a well plate, a mold for PDMS channel casting; and how to combine multiple designs into a single device. The advantages and limitations of 3D-printed microfluidic devices are thoroughly discussed, as are some future directions for the field.
一篇包含79篇参考文献的小型综述。在本综述中，讨论了3D打印微流控装置的最新趋势。此外，重点关注了这些装置的制造方面，补充信息包含设计各种结构的详细说明，这些结构包括：微流控通道、用于容纳商用流体配件的螺纹、分流器；孔板、用于PDMS通道浇铸的模具；以及如何将多种设计组合到单个装置中。全面讨论了3D打印微流控装置的优点和局限性，以及该领域的一些未来发展方向。
