Abstract
A microfluidic reactor for performing chemical and biological synthesis reactions, including chemical and biological syntheses of organic, polymer, inorganic, oligonucleotide, peptide, protein, bacteria, and enzymatic products is provided. Two fluids are input into the device, mixed in a mixing region and provided to a long, composite reaction channel. Fluids flowing through the reaction channel may be diverted at a diversion region into a sample channel. Fluids in the sample channel may be mixed at a second region, with additional reagents.
