Abstract: A digital droplet PCR system is described. The digital droplet PCR system comprises a microfluidic cartridge comprising: a plurality of sample droplet generators, wherein each sample droplet generator is operable to partition a PCR mixture into a plurality of aqueous droplets dispersed in a carrier liquid, and wherein at least one sample droplet generator is operable to partition a PCR mixture that is different to a PCR mixture that is partitioned by at least one other sample droplet generator; a thermocycling chamber comprising an embedded heater, an inlet configured to receive the plurality of aqueous droplets from the plurality of sample droplet generators, and an outlet; and an optical readout zone fluidly connected to the outlet of the thermocycling chamber; and a pressure actuated pump configured to couple to and cause fluid flow through the microfluidic cartridge. A method of performing digital droplet PCR is also described.

Abstract: A digital microfluidic device includes an array of controllable electrode pads alignable with a fluid passageway and a control portion. The control portion is to cause electrowetting movement of a droplet within the fluid passageway through a circuit of multiple different zones of the electrode pads. The electrowetting movement is to iteratively expose the droplet within a current zone of the different zones for a selectable current time period at a current temperature of a list of consecutive temperatures, further expose the droplet within the current zone, for each respective selectable subsequent time period, at each respective subsequent temperature of the list which is greater than the current temperature, and move the droplet into a subsequent zone of the different zones when one of the respective subsequent temperatures is less than the current temperature.

Abstract: An electroporation system may include a well plate, a dispenser and a dispenser-well positioning system. The well plate may include wells, each of the wells including an interior, a first electrode adjacent the interior and a second electrode adjacent the interior and spaced from the first electrode. The first electrode and the second electrode are to apply an electrostatic field across the well. The dispenser is to dispense a cell having a diameter into each of the wells. The dispenser-well positioning system is to align each well and the dispenser such that the dispenser dispenses the cell into each well at a location spaced from the first electrode and the second electrode by a distance of at least 5 times the diameter of the cell.

Abstract: An example method for measuring deformability of a cell responsive to a pressure wave, consistent with the present disclosure, includes moving a cell of a sample into a cell probing chamber of a microfluidic device. While the cell is in the cell probing chamber, the method includes generating a pressure wave within the cell probing chamber by actuating a fluidic pump. The method further includes determining a deformability of the cell responsive to the pressure wave, using an imaging array synchronized with the actuation of the fluidic pump.

Abstract: A method of detecting passage of a particle into a target location includes receiving a sample on a die including a microfluidic chamber, the microfluidic chamber including a microfluidic path coupling a reservoir to a foyer, and moving the sample from the reservoir to the foyer by firing a nozzle fluidically coupled to the foyer. The method further includes detecting passage of a particle of the sample from the reservoir to the foyer via a first sensor disposed within the microfluidic path, and detecting passage of the particle into the target location via a second sensor disposed between the first sensor and the nozzle. The method includes recording in a dispense map, an indication of whether the target location includes a single particle or multiple particles based on signals measured by the first sensor and the second sensor.

Abstract: An example system includes a primary channel having a first end and a second end, at least two reagent reservoirs coupled to the first end, and a controller. Each reservoir contains a reagent in a fluid solution and is associated with an integrated pump to drive a reagent droplet from the corresponding reagent reservoir into the primary channel towards the second end. The controller is coupled to the integrated pumps and operates according to a sequence to actuate the integrated pumps, the sequence being indicative of reagents in the reagent reservoirs. The actuation of the pumps is to drive the reagent droplets from the reagent reservoirs into the primary channel in accordance with the sequence. The example system also includes a shell material reservoir with a shell material and an associated shell material pump to drive the shell material into the primary channel to encapsulate the reagent droplets.

Abstract: A microfluidic pressure sensor may include a reference chamber, a sensed volume, a microfluidic channel connecting an interior of the reference chamber to an interior of the sensed volume, a volume of liquid contained and movable within the microfluidic channel while occluding the microfluidic channel and a sensor to output signals indicating positioning of the volume of liquid along the microfluidic channel. Positioning of the volume of liquid along microfluidic channel indicates a pressure of the sensed volume.
