请高手详细解释一下何为µ-TAS？

呵呵，刚读过一本书上写过。好像是“微全分析系统”的意思。
是微纳米系统的一个分支，也是生物化学、微系统与生物传感器的一个交叉。
那是在清华朱静先生的《纳米器件》的上面介绍的，这本书有超星版，虽然，本人还是买了一本才35RMB。

方肇伦院士在这方面有很深入的研究。

以下是北大关于这方面的资料：

µ-TAS:micro total analysis system.

关于µ-TAS大致可以如下定义:
A micro-total analysis system(µ-TAS), also known as a lab-on-a-chip, is a small (centimeter-sized) chip that contains micron-sized channels for fluid transport and other design elements, such as pumps, valves, and reactors that miniaturize, integrate, and automate complex, multistep chemical and biological processes

  Professor Manz is one of the pioneers in microchip technology used for chemical applications. He was involved in the development of high speed analysers based on capillary electrophoresis, liquid chromatography and flow injection analysis. These analysers profit from the microfabrication know-how originally developed for microelectronics, from the small volumes obtainable, and from the high degree of integration. He did most of his previous research with his group at Ciba-Geigy Ltd. in Basel, Switzerland and at Imperial College in London, U.K.
  He developed a novel concept for Miniaturized Total Analysis Systems (µ-TAS): sampling, any sample pretreatment, separation, and detection steps are all performed in an integrated microsystem. A chemical parameter, for example the concentration of a compound, is periodically transformed into an electronic or an optical signal. In fact, it is a hybrid combining the advantages of a sophisticated analysis system with the size of a chemical sensor.
  The Manz Lab focuses on novel applications of chip technology in analytical chemistry and the life sciences:
1.Understanding of information flow in chemical and biochemical micro-environments: chips for metabolism and status of individual biological cells, for cell sorting, for small volume DNA amplification, and for investigations related to molecular biophysics.
2.Chemistry in picoliter to attoliter volumes: chips for manipulation of small volumes of sample, for multiplexing, for chemical microreactors, for enhanced detection limits and for investigating novel phenomena in very small channels.
3.Integrated micro analysers using external flow and sensing control: solving the on-line monitoring problems in environmental, process control and medical applications.
4.Separation techniques offering unlimited separation efficiency or extremely short analysis time: chips for electrophoresis and chromatography, especially in a cyclic set-up or operated in repetitive mode.
5.Hyphenated separation techniques offering large peak capacities: chips for hyphenation of sample preparation, separation and mass spectrometry, of chromatography and electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing or isotachophoresis.
