The present invention pertains to various systems for manipulating liquid fluids. A first system includes a microfluidic device (102) provided with at least one microfluidic structure communicating with at least one port (104) for introducing said liquid fluid into said microfluidic structure, and at least one nozzle (108) adapted for ejecting an air stream (109), said nozzle being operatively coupled to said port so that said ejected air stream is either made to flow across said port to generate said negative pressure in said microfluidic structure or is made to at least partially flow into said port to generate said positive pressure therein. Alternatively, a substrate may face the device which can be spun around a spin axis and is being provided with one or more step-like protrusions for generating a positive and/or negative pressure. Yet alternatively, a support for supporting the device which can be spun around a spin axis can be envisaged. The support is being provided with at least one duct for generating a positive and/or negative pressure in the microfluidic structure. Yet alternatively, an open-top chamber adapted to be covered by the microfluidic device including at least one cavity communicating with the port and being connected to a pump can be envisaged. The invention further pertains to a method for manipulating liquid fluids in a microfluidic structure, comprising the following steps of: introducing said liquid fluid through one first port into said structure; making air to either flow across said first port or a second port being different from the first port and communicating with the microfluidic structure to generate a negative pressure in said structure and/or to at least partially flow into said port to generate a positive pressure in said structure; and spinning said microfluidic structure around a spin axis to generate a centrifugal force acting on said liquid fluid contained in said microfluidic structure.

摘要:
Body fluid sampling device comprising a skin-piercing element (10) having a fluid pathway (11) for receiving body fluid, at least a portion of said fluid pathway is open to the environment and further comprising a fluid receiving means (40) being spaced from said fluid pathway so that fluid in said pathway will not contact the fluid receiving means initially. Said fluid receiving means may have a test zone (45) for performing an analytical reaction. Fluid from said channel is contacted with said fluid receiving means either by bringing the fluid receiving means and the fluid into mechanical contact or by electrically transporting fluid from the channel onto the fluid receiving means.
摘要:
Device for at least partial fractioning or separating fluid from higher density and/or solid particles containing samples, the device comprising a movable or drivable body as e.g. a rotatable plate-like or disc-like body (1) with at least one flow path (3). Within this flow path at one internal wall surface at moving or driving the body the flow velocity of the fluid sample is higher compared with the velocity at e.g. the opposite internal wall surface. At least the one path (3) is comprising at the mentioned one internal wall surface (4) means (5) to at least delay the flow of the fluid sample mixture along the mentioned wall surface. The device is e.g. suitable for the separation of blood e.g. of plasma from at least red blood cells, preferably from red and white blood cells to achieve blood plasma with high purity for analytical reasons.
