Literature search: Microfluidic characterization of enzymes

The dataset contains the records of scientific research articles which were found during the literature search focused on microfluidic characterization of enzymes. The description of the dataset is as follows:
For each study, we have collected information about the detection technique applied, enzyme characteristics, and studied enzymes, including their enzyme commission (EC) numbers, type of microfluidic device and the number of enzyme variants characterized. Furthermore, we have determined the development level of microfluidic technologies based on the searches both in the articles themselves and in the citing literature. Based on this search, we have classified the articles into three categories: (i) proof-of-concept (POC) studies, which only developed and demonstrated the microfluidic system, (ii) systematic applications, i.e., studies that employed the developed technology in at least one other study for similar characterization, and (iii) studies employing commercially available microfluidic technologies. Finally, we have acquired the number of citations and the average number of citations per year from the Web of Science database (results as of 18th January, 2023), while we don’t include citations and publications from 2023.
