The Birth of M
In the period when silicon‐based MEMbegan to take off, there were no technibegan to take off, there were no techniobstacles in making simple microfluisystems. Thus, the first miniaturized gchromatography system was created aroug p y y1975. This achievement was an isolated onmost likely because the separation‐sciencommunity was not ready to develop silicy y ptechnologies for its own needs. It was oafter 1991 that the advantagesminiaturization were thrust into the spotlighp gparticularly forchromatography,
its applicationand then all sorts
microfluidic systems began to be fabricated.
