A team from the University of Michigan was contracted by the Department of Defense to test prototype devices to detect trichloroethylene, or TCE,on Utah’s Hill Air Force Base. Even in the presence of 50 other contaminants, the device was able to find extremely low levels of the target contaminant. "Most lab-on-a-chip technologies are used for biomedical analysis of liquids," project director Ted...
