A device, system, and method are provided for thermally treating a fluid processing device. According to various embodiments, a system is provided that can include a thermal device and a fluid processing device holder. The thermal device can include a first block having a thermal conductivity greater than 0.5 Watt per centimeter Kelvin (W/cm·K), a second block having a thermal conductivity greater than 0.5 W/cm·K, and a heat-pump device disposed between the first block and the second block. The heat-pump device can transfer thermal energy from at least one of the first block and the second block to the other of the first block and the second block. The fluid processing device holder can hold a fluid processing device in a heat-transfer position with respect to the first block and the second block. The fluid processing device can be a microfluidic device.

摘要:
A fluid processing device comprises a substrate rotatable about a central axis of rotation and symmetrical about at least one centerline passing through the central axis of rotation, and the substrate comprises a plurality of channels, each channel comprising a respective inlet chamber and two or more respective outlet chambers. The chambers can include a plurality of individual, unconnected, input wells adapted to each receive a separate input of fluid. The channels can include flow splitters that divert at least a portion of fluid from a primary series of channels and chambers to a secondary series of channels and chambers. The diverting portions of the flow splitters can comprise at least a directional component parallel to the direction of centrifugal forces generated by rotating the substrate about its central axis of rotation. Diverting portions of flow splitters in channels on one side of the centerline can extend in a direction that is mirrored, with respect to the centerline, by diverting portions of flow splitters in channels on the opposite side of the centerline.
