mikrometod

Mikrometod refers to a micro-scale analytical method or technique used in chemistry, biology, or other scientific fields. These methods are characterized by the extremely small quantities of sample required for analysis, often in the nanogram or picogram range. The development of mikrometods has been driven by the need to analyze precious or limited samples, such as those obtained from biological fluids, single cells, or trace environmental pollutants.

Key advantages of mikrometods include reduced reagent consumption, lower waste generation, and potentially faster analysis times. However, they also present challenges, such as the need for highly sensitive instrumentation and specialized sample preparation techniques to avoid contamination and ensure accurate results. The miniaturization of analytical systems, including microfluidic devices, has significantly contributed to the advancement and application of mikrometods across various scientific disciplines, enabling more precise and efficient investigations at the molecular or cellular level.
