Gold nanoparticles were also synthesized by rapid mixing and reactive chloroauric acid (HAuCl 4 ) and sodium citrate (Na 3 Table 1 presents the modular fluidic components used to integrate Lego ® -like SFMs. The functional components consisted of finger-operated, electricity-free pumps, a one-way valve, vortextype mixer, reservoir, and heating block (with the associated block names P, OWV, VM, R, and HB), and the straight tube (ST), T-type tube (TT-F, TT-M with F, and M denoting a male to female type of sealing face), cross tube (CT-F, CT-M), corner tube (CT), and height tube (HT) were categorized as auxiliary components and the corresponding model numbers were listed below each schematic, which demonstrated the mass production feasibility of Lego ® -like SFMs in several sizes.	./cache/cord-311023-4ge4glq9.txt	./txt/cord-311023-4ge4glq9.txt
