Abstract
We have developed a microneedle based sample collecting
system that is capable of extracting lipid samples from
an artificial lipid layer on a microscope slide. Such a
system can be used in the future to collect lipid samples
from real tissue sections and help surgeons in their
decision making during surgical operations. The sample
collection system consists of a silicon based multiport
microneedle integrated with polymer microfluidics. A
special micromanipulator system is developed to control
the positioning of the needle and the sampling event.
Mass spectrometry analysis is used to show that the lipid
extraction from a standard lipid sample can be
successfully done.
