    摘要: The present invention generally pertains to a system which utilizes floating thermal contact to enable PCR, in a thermal management device. Comprised of multiple thermal zones attached to a framework, each zone an individually actuated, isolated sub-assembly. The actuation of each zone ensures physical contact with an uneven, yet flat microfluidic chip to achieve effective, conductive heat transfer. The isolation of each zone serves to insulate the thermal zones from each other and minimize undesired heat transfer between adjacent zones, so that each zone is at a proper, uniform temperature.

    摘要: The present invention generally pertains to a system for performing droplet inflation, and methods and kits comprising the same. The system comprises at least one microfluidic channel comprising one or more droplets flowing therein, one or more fluid reservoirs, one or more inflators, one or more inflator nozzles, and at least one mechanism for disrupting an interface between a droplet and a fluid. The present invention provides for the inflation of a relatively controlled volume of fluid into a droplet resulting in an increase in the volume of the droplet relative to its volume prior to inflation and, accordingly, dilution of the concentration of species, if any, previously present and emulsified in the droplet.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method for maintaining heterogeneous concentrations of transitory target molecules in emulsion droplets by using one of a number of means to associate them to other, non-transitory molecules within the emulsion droplets contained in a microfluidic device. The present invention further provides a method for ensuring that the concentration and speciation of molecules will remain constant when stored in emulsion droplets. This results in emulsion droplets having heterogeneous concentrations of molecules, thereby improving the performance and applicability of droplet-based microfluidics.
