In cooperation with the industrial partner STEAG microParts GmbH and the Karlsruhe Research Center, the authors at the University of Bremen have created a behavioral model for the microsystem 'medical test strips'. As there is no complete theory for the underlying system yet, with capillary interaction between up to three different materials in the microfluidical/micromechanical world, the flow of liquids in such an application cannot be described analytically. Medical test strips made from plastics are an innovative approach toward cheap and therefore seminal one-way diagnostic systems and can be considered as step towards the long discussed 'lab on a chip' as well. The modeling is based on simulation results from the Finite Volume Method (FVM), yielding partial information for the investigated structures by solving partial differential equations. As this numerical approach cannot provide results for a complete channel, due to calculation efforts, a behavioral model for optimization purpose has been created on a higher abstraction level.© (2002) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
