In many fields of importance to Canadians' health and well-being, including environmental monitoring, medical diagnostics, food safety, forensics, and basic biological research, the ability to perform biological and chemical agent detection is of paramount importance. There is a growing need for instruments for fast, accurate, and inexpensive sample manipulation with high-throughput for detection of agents from: 1) many samples; and/or 2) to detect multiple agents in a single sample. Currently, such large scale analysis is performed using slow conventional lab techniques or large table-top systems. Microfluidics technology, which is the manipulation of small liquid volumes in sub-millimetre tubes, offers unparalleled promise for innovation in minimizing instrument size, sample volume, and cost. However, while many successful microfluidic

在对加拿大人的健康和福祉至关重要的许多领域，包括环境监测、医疗诊断、食品安全、法医学和基础生物研究，进行生物和化学制剂检测的能力至关重要。人们越来越需要能够快速、准确且廉价地进行样品操作并具有高通量的仪器，以检测来自以下物质的试剂：1) 许多样品；和/或 2) 检测单个样品中的多种试剂。目前，这种大规模分析是使用缓慢的传统实验室技术或大型桌面系统进行的。微流体技术是在亚毫米管中操纵少量液体，为最大限度地减少仪器尺寸、样品体积和成本的创新提供了无与伦比的前景。然而，虽然许多成功的微流体
