Micro and Nano Flow Systems for Bioanalysis
Micro and Nano Flow Systems for Bioanalysis addresses the latest developments in biomedical engineering at very small scales. It shows how organic systems require multi-scale understanding in the broadest sense whether the approach is experimental o

Preface
This volume was inspired by a Special Session at the 3rd International Conference on Micro and Nano Flows (MNF2011) held at Thessaloniki, Greece, from 22nd to 24th August, 2011. The Conference ethos was strongly interdisciplinary, with parallel sessions on both single- and mixed-phase thermofluids in engineering together with fluid flow aspects of biomedicine. The Special Session was in addition to the biomedical stream of presentations. It was entitled Micro and Nano Flows in Medicine: the way ahead and involved a number of speakers of international invited status, and covered a comprehensive range of topics from ultra-fine optical measurement methods to multi-scale m
