Another convenient and important benefit is the integrated nanoliter system's capability of having all the necessary biological fluids in the system before operation by storing each biological fluid in a specific microfabricated fluidic network.

Since the integrated nanoliter system is generally made up of many controllable microfabricated fluidic networks, integrated nanoliter systems are an ideal environment for controlling biological fluids.
The device was created using a microfabrication strategy known as soft lithography that was pioneered by George M. Whitesides, an American chemist, who is a professor of chemistry at Harvard, as well as a Wyss Institute core faculty member.
