✦ Synopsis

Following the trend towards smaller channel inner diameter for better separation performance and shorter channel length for shorter transport time, a modular construction of a miniaturized 'total chemical analysis system' is proposed. The theoretical performances of such systems based on flow injection analysis, chromatography and electrophoresis, are compared with those of existing chemical sensors and analysis systems.
