In this study, micropolar fluid flow in a channel subject to a chemical reaction is investigated analytically using Differential Transformation Method (DTM). The effects of Peclet numbers on the temperature and concentration profiles are determined. Also the effects of various parameters such as the Reynolds number, the coupling parameter and the spin gradient viscosity parameter on the fluid properties are determined and shown graphically. The comparison between the results from DTM and numerical method are in well agreement which proofs the capability of this method for solving such problems. Also, for both suction and injection it can be found that Reynolds number and Peclet number have direct relationship with Nusselt number and Sherwood number.
