Integrated sensors with microfluidic features using LTCC technology - INTCERSEN

The main focus of the INTCERSEN was the development and fabrication design of innovative ceramic microfluidic devices with integrated sensing features with applications on bio-medical, environment and security. The LTCC technology versatility allowed the 3D integration of electrochemical sensing areas with microfluidic features and advanced signal processing and wireless communication. Several Experimental models of integrated sensors have been developed.
