Extremely Rapid and Fully Reprogrammable Total PCR Assays Using Wire-Guided Droplet Microfluidics
This technology comprises a reprogrammable digital microfluidics assembly, called wire-guided droplet microfluidics, wherein a droplet hangs at the end of a wire or a blunt end syringe needle and moves either over a superhydrophobic surface or within a hydrophobic liquid. The differences in the forces of adhesion to the needle wire and to the superhydrophobic...
