INTEGRATED MICROFLUIDIC DEVICE FOR DROPLET MANIPULATION

Abstract

Droplets based microfluidic systems have a big potential for the miniaturization of processes for bioanalysis. In the form of droplets, reagents are used in discrete volume, enabling high-throughput chemical reactions as well as single-cell encapsulation. Microreactors of this type can be manipulated and applied in bio-testing. In this work we present a platform for droplet generation and manipulation by using dielectrophoresis force. This platform is an integrated microfluidic device with a dielectrophoresis (DEP) chip. The microfluidic device generates microdroplets such as water in oil emulsion
