Current 3D printed microfluidics are limited by multiple factors, such as available materials for 3D printing (e.g. optical transparency, flexibility, biocompatibility), achievable dimensions of microchannels by commercial 3D printers, integration of 3D printed microfluidics with functional materials or substrates. Researchers have circumvented these limitations by developing a novel method that combines direct ink wiring (DIW) 3D printer with prefabricated substrates to fabricate microfluidic devices that can be rapidly integrated with functional components.
