Enhanced versatility of fluid control in centrifugal microfluidic platforms using two degrees of freedom

摘要: Centrifugal microfluidic platforms have significant potential in commercial applications because of their operational flexibility and minimal external infrastructure requirements. However, the dynamic real-time control fluid flow within traditional centrifugal is problematic. To address this limitation, we propose a two degrees freedom platform, which digital servo located at each end an arm driven by motor. This allows for reversible inward pumping between multiple chambers with perfect efficiency. Furthermore, addition second degree position-based pressure controlled burst valves to be accessed operated independent fashion. demonstrate efficacy technical innovation, show rapid configurable switching three target device.
