Abstract:Abstract:Micropump is an essential component used in drug delivery systems to dispense small amounts of liquid into human body in a controlled manner over a period of time. Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is an elastomeric polymer with attractive properties such as nontoxicity, biocompatibility and blood compatibility. Further, its bio-inertness inhibits microbial growth, thereby making it more attractive for biomedical applications. This paper presents the fabrication of a simple, dual-chamber, valveless PDMS mic… Show more
