Rapid Prototyping of Microfluidic Devices with Stereolithographic 3D Printing.

ABSTRACT: 3D printing has become a prevalent technology in many fields such as manufacturing, architecture, and electronics. This additive manufacturing technique is also widely used for biomedical research and clinical applications to prototype or assemble biomedical devices and tools. 3D printing-based strategies for biocompatible materials offer greater design flexibility, enhanced versatility, and faster results than traditional fabrication techniques, advantages that could be especially beneficial to the development of microfluidic chips. The ability to simply and efficiently produce new chip molds from computer aided design (CAD) models would significantly transform the development process and expand its accessibility by removing the need for more complex and expensive lithography methods.
