    摘要： A method is provided for conducting a droplet-based enzymatic assay, e.g., for diagnostic purposes. On a droplet actuator, a droplet comprising an enzyme of interest is provided along with a droplet comprising a substrate which is potentially modified in the presence of the enzyme. Droplet operations are executed to combine the enzyme and substrate droplets on the droplet actuator, thereby yielding an assay droplet on the droplet actuator. Detecting modification of the substrate by the enzyme in the assay droplet occurs on the droplet actuator. Modified substrate preparations for conducting such enzymatic assays are also provided.

    摘要： The invention relates to a microfluidic platform and methods of using the platform for conducting enzyme assays using a droplet actuator. The enzyme assays of the invention are useful for, among other things, identifying and/or characterizing disorders resulting from conditions in which enzymes are defective or are produced in inappropriate amounts. Enzyme assays of the invention may, for example, be used to detect altered activity of a particular enzyme in a sample, which may serve as an indicator of a particular disease. Altered activity may, for example, be caused by conditions which result in the increased or reduced production of a certain enzyme or its substrate and/or conditions which result in defective enzymes and/or substrates exhibiting increased or decreased effectiveness relative to corresponding normal enzymes and/or substrates.

    摘要： A method of sorting beads on a droplet actuator. The method may, for example, include the following steps: (a) providing a droplet actuator comprising a substrate comprising electrodes arranged for conducting droplet operations on a substrate surface; (b) providing an assay droplet on the substrate surface, the droplet comprising two or more target-capture bead populations comprising target-capture beads comprising: (i) a capture probe bound to a target substance; and (ii) a unique bar binding element which binds to a corresponding binder; (c) using droplet operations to combine the assay droplet with a bead-capture droplet comprising one or more bead-capture beads having affinity for the binding element; (d) immobilizing the one or more bead-capture beads while conducting droplet operations to separate the bead-capture beads from unbound target-capture beads; (e) resuspending the one or more bead-capture beads in a droplet, thereby providing a droplet comprising a substantially pure substance-capture bead population; and (f) using droplet operations to conduct one or more protocol steps for an assay protocol.

    摘要： The invention relates to certain novel approaches to reducing or eliminating the movement of contaminants from one droplet to another on a droplet actuator via liquid filler fluid. In one application, a method of detecting an analyte is provided and includes providing in a detection window a droplet including a signal-producing substance indicative of the presence and/or quantity of an analyte and one or more magnetically responsive beads which may interfere with signal produced by the signal producing substance. The method further includes using a magnetic field for magnetically removing the magnetically responsive beads from the detection window and/or magnetically restricting the magnetically responsive beads from entering the detection window while transporting and/or retaining the droplet in the detection window. The method additionally includes detecting a signal produced by the signal-producing substance.
