ABSTRACT:
A laminated flow device comprises a porous material encapsulated within bonding material. The porous material forms a flow path and the bonding material forms an enclosure surrounding the flow path. Micro-components, such as capillaries, electrodes, reservoirs, bridges, electrokinetic elements, and detectors, can be encapsulated within the device.
