What are Some Examples of MEMS Devices in Histology?
Several MEMS devices have been developed and utilized in histology:
Microfluidic devices: These are used for handling and manipulating small volumes of fluids, which is essential for preparing histological samples. Microsensors: These sensors can detect various biochemical signals in tissue samples, providing valuable information about the tissue's condition. Micromotors: These are used in microdissection and other precise tissue manipulation tasks. Microarrays: These are used to analyze gene expression in tissue samples, providing insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying various diseases.
