    Abstract: The invention relates to an assembly comprising at least one microfluidic device and a mounting piece, this microfluidic device comprising at least one material layer and at least one first fluidic port, which first fluidic port is situated at least partially in an end surface of the material layer and which mounting piece comprises at least one fluidic component, wherein the mounting piece is coupled to the microfluidic device by means of first coupling means provided for this purpose such that the fluidic component is connected to the first fluidic port. The invention also relates to such a mounting piece. The invention further relates to a method for manufacturing such an assembly and a method for use thereof. What is essential is that external fluidic components, in particular reservoirs or wells, are not connected, as is usual, to ports in the 'upper surface' of a microchip, but to ports in an outer end or side surface thereof, and that more space thereby remains available on the 'upper surface' and 'lower surface' of the microchip, for instance for visual inspection or other operations, or that the 'upper surface' and 'lower surface' of the microchip can thereby be smaller and the device or the system can thus be given a more compact form. Furthermore, an additional process such as powder-blasting or drilling is then often no longer necessary.
