RAB Microfluidics is an Aberdeen based research and development firm focussed on point-of-need analysis: using ‘lab-on-a-chip’ technology to deliver oil analysis faster and cheaper than the current ‘send the sample to laboratory’ approach, making conventional procedures mobile, rapid and routine. The technology has application opportunity in maritime, renewable wind, other power generation, aerospace, defence, processing and manufacturing oil and gas, as well as transport industries.
