The concept of microfluidics has significantly influenced the design and the implementation of modern bioanalytical systems due to the fact that these miniaturized devices of Mechanical can handle and manipulate samples in a much more efficient way than conventional instruments. In an analogy to the development of microelectronics, increasingly sophisticated devices with greater functionalities have become one of the major goals being pursued in the area of micrototal analysis systems. The incorporation of polymeric membranes into microfluidic networks has therefore been employed in an effort to enhance the functionalities of these microfabricated devices. These commercially available membranes are porous, flexible, mechanically robust and compatible with plastic microfluidic networks. The large surface area-to-volume ratio of porous membrane media is particularly important for achieving rapid buffer exchange during microdialysis and obtaining ultrahigh concentration of adsorbed enzymes for various biochemical reactions. Furthermore, the membrane pore diameter in the sub-mum range eliminates the constraints of diffusional mass-transfer resistance for performing chiral separation using adsorbed protein as the chiral stationary phase. A review on the recent advancement in the integration of polymeric membranes with microfluidic networks is presented for their widespread applications in bioanalytical chemistry.
