Abstract
Microfabrication gives access to surfaces of a few micron square: and the volumes of picoliter and femtoliter size. Integration of combinato rial synthesis? analysis speed, and small-volume handling are the main advantages. Examples of experimental results in drug discovery, analy tical chemistry, and microbiology exhibit the potential of the chip-mi crostructure approach.
