Abstract
Large-scale integrated microfluidic networks were designed and fabricated in order to carry out large combinatorial synthesis and screening. The microfluidic devices contained a series of small chambers with a total volume of one nanoliter to contain each of the combinations in the screening library. The library screen was carried out using a label-free sensor that was integrated into the microfluidic device. The sensor identified strongly binding ligands in a combinatorial screen of antibodies.
