Capillary Microfluidics for Bioanalysis: Design Principles and Application Perspectives.

This review develops a coherent physical framework for capillary devices, based on the Young-Laplace equation, Jurin's law, the Lucas-Washburn equation, and Darcy's law, that relates interfacial curvature, capillary pressure, viscous dissipation, and permeability to fluid behavior in both hollow channels and porous med...
