    Abstract: A diagnostic cassette includes a substrate, to physically and electrically connect the product to a computing device, a reservoir defined within the substrate to receive a fluid sample for processing by the diagnostic cassette, a reagent to react with the fluid sample deposited in the reservoir to form a solution to enable processing of the fluid sample by the diagnostic cassette, a channel to direct the solution, and a sensor to measure a number of parameters of the solution passing through the channel. A method for measuring microfluidic samples includes receiving, in a reservoir, a fluid sample to be measured, combining the fluid sample with a reagent to create a solution, moving the solution through a channel, and measuring the solution, using sensors, as the solution passes through the channel.

    Abstract: A device including a microfluidic channel structure formed on a substrate and including a first channel and a fluid actuator within the microfluidic channel structure. A sense region within the first channel is to receive a fluid flow of target biologic particles for counting in a single file pattern, with the sense region having a volume on a same order of magnitude as a volume of a single one of the target biologic particles.

    Abstract: Examples herein provide a method. The method includes applying an electrical potential difference over a blood sample in a testing cassette of a microfluidic device, the cassette including a microfluidic channel through which the blood sample flows. The method includes measuring, over a duration of time, an electrical signal passing through the blood sample as the blood sample flows from a first end and coagulates at a second end of the microfluidic channel to obtain a measurement function as a function of time. The method also includes correlating the measurement function to a characteristic of the blood sample.

    Abstract: Example sensor apparatus for microfluidic devices and related methods are disclosed. In examples disclosed herein, a method of fabricating a sensor apparatus for a microfluidic device includes etching a portion of an intermediate layer to form a sensor chamber in a substrate assembly, where the substrate assembly has a base layer and the intermediate layer, and where the base layer comprises a first material and the intermediate layer comprises a second material different than the first material. The method includes forming a first electrode and a second electrode in the sensor chamber. The method also includes forming a fluidic transport channel in fluid communication with the sensor chamber, where the fluidic transport channel comprises a third material different than the first material and the second material.

    Abstract: Example implementations relate to a microfluidics sensing system. For example, a microfluidics sensing system may include a portable computing device to execute a microfluidics application, a microfluidic chip coupled to the portable computing device, the microfluidic chip including a microfluidic pumping and sensing region to perform a test on a biologic sample, and a printed circuit board (PCB) on a microfluidic reader to instruct the microfluidic pumping and sensing region to perform the test based on a command received from the microfluidics application.
