Focus & Coverage

Biomicrofluidics is an online open-access journal published by the American Institute of Physics to rapidly disseminate novel microfluidic techniques with diagnostic, medical, biological, pharmaceutical, environmental, and chemical applications. Research areas include, but are not limited to:

• DNA and molecular manipulation
• Immuno-colloid and genetic probe control
• Rapid particle analyzers and counters
• Microfluidics and nanofluidics
• Wetting and nano-rheology
• Drop and digitated platforms
• Electrokinetics and magnetohydrodynamics
• Pathogen and molecular concentration
• Separation and sorting devices

With a primary focus on high-quality, original research articles, the journal also will organize special sections that will help elucidate and define specific challenges unique to the interdisciplinary field of biomicrofluidics.
