摘要:
A method of producing a replicate or derivative of an array of molecules, the array having a spatial arrangement of separate samples of molecules, includes creating, for each sample, at least one spatially limited effective area which is separate from the effective areas of the other samples, a surface, provided with a binding adapter or binding properties, of a carrier bordering on the effective areas. The molecules are amplified by means of amplifying agents in the effective areas for creating replicates or derivatives of the samples. The replicates or derivatives of the samples are bound to the carrier by means of the binding adapter or the binding properties, so that a spatial arrangement of the replicates or derivatives of the samples on the carrier corresponds to the spatial arrangement of the samples in the array. The carrier having the copies of the samples is removed from the array.

A device for producing a mixture of two phases that are insoluble in each other comprises a first fluid channel and a second fluid channel which lead into a contact region. Also, a third fluid channel is provided which leads into the contact region. The device comprises an imparter configured to impart a rotation on the fluid channels, a first phase being centrifugally supplied to the contact region through the first fluid channel, and a second phase, insoluble in the first phase, being supplied to the contact region through the second fluid channel, compressive and/or shearing forces in the contact region which are centrifugally/hydrodynamically induced by the rotation causing drops to break away in one of the phases supplied in order to produce the mixture of the first and second phases.

A microdosing apparatus comprises a fluid conduit having a flexible tube with a first end for connecting to a fluid reservoir and a second end where an outlet opening is located. An actuating device with a displacer with adjustable hub is provided, by which the volume of a portion of the flexible hub can be changed to thereby dispense liquid as free flying droplets or as free flying jet at the outlet opening by moving the displacer between a first end position and a second end position, whereby the tube is partly compressed in the first or the second end position. In other words, a microdosing apparatus comprises fluid conduit having a portion along which a cross section of the fluid conduit is variable by an actuating device to effect a change of the volume of the fluid conduit. A ratio of a fluidic impedance between the position of the actuating device and the outlet opening to a fluidic impedance between a first end of the fluid conduit and the position of the actuating device is variable by changing the position of the actuating device, so that a dosing volume dispensed at the outlet opening is variable thereby by at least 10%.

A fluid handling apparatus includes a body, which comprises a fluid handling structure, and a flexible membrane attached to the body and formed to interact with a fluid in the fluid handling structure, wherein the membrane comprises a first actuation component. A second actuation component is provided, wherein the first and the second actuation component are formed such that the same attract or repel each other in a first positional relationship, in order to actuate the flexible membrane. A driving means is provided to move the body relative to the second actuation component, in order to bring the first and the second actuation component into the first and out of the first positional relationship.

A device for device for applying a plurality of microdroplets onto a substrate has a plurality of nozzle orifices in a dosing head. In addition to walls for defining a liquid column of a medium to be dosed on each nozzle orifice, a pressure chamber is provided, which is adapted to be filled with a buffer medium and which is arranged in such a way that said buffer medium can simultaneously be used for applying a pressure to the liquid-column ends which are spaced apart from the nozzle orifices. A pressure generator is provided for applying a pressure to said buffer medium in such a way that a plurality of microdroplets will simultaneously be applied onto the substrate through said plurality of nozzle orifices. Finally, liquid reservoirs for the media to be dosed, which are in fluid communication with the liquid columns on the nozzle orifices are provided.

An apparatus for determining the volume fractions of the phases in a suspension includes a body, a channel structure, which is formed in the body, and an inlet area and a blind channel, which is fluidically connected to and capable of being filled via the same. Furthermore, a drive for imparting the body with rotation, so that phase separation of the suspension in the blind channel takes place, is provided. The blind channel includes such a channel cross-section and/or such wetting properties that, when filling same via the inlet area, higher capillary forces act in a first cross-sectional area than in a second cross-sectional area, so that at first the first cross-sectional area fills in the direction from the inlet area toward the blind end of the blind channel and then the second cross-sectional area fills in the direction from the blind end toward the inlet area.

A particle sedimentation apparatus includes a rotation body rotatable about a rotation axis and a separation chamber formed in the rotation body, to cause sedimentation of particle suspension in the separation chamber upon rotation of the rotation body. The particles accumulate in a radially outward region of the separation chamber. A flow-rate-determining inflow channel having azimuthal path length with an inflow channel inlet and an inflow channel outlet is formed in the rotation body, the inflow channel inlet being arranged radially further inwardly than the inflow channel outlet, the inflow channel outlet being fluidically connected to the separation chamber and formed to introduce particle suspension into the separation chamber upon rotation of the rotation body. Furthermore, an outflow channel is formed in the rotation body with an outflow channel inlet and an outflow channel outlet, to at least partially drain supernatant liquid formed by sedimentation from the separation chamber.

A device for producing a dilution series from a solution to be diluted, which contains a substance to be diluted, and a dilution solution, includes a body of rotation, a drive configured to subject the body of rotation to rotations having different rotation protocols, and a controller configured to control the drive so as to subject the body of rotation to the different rotational frequencies. A first mixing chamber and a second mixing chamber are connected via a fluidic connection which enables producing, in the first mixing chamber, a first mixture having a first dilution ratio, transferring a partial volume of the first mixture into the second mixing chamber, and there producing a second mixture having a second dilution ratio.
