چکیده

A 330-pL chromatographic bed was fabricated on a glass substrate as part of an electroosmotically pumped microfluidic system. Two weirs within a sample channel formed a cavity in which octadecylsilane (ODS) coated silica beads (1.5-4 microns diameter) were trapped. ODS beads were mobilized into and out of the cavity using electroosmotic flow through a bead-introduction channel which accessed the cavity. This procedure allowed the beads in the cavity to be repeatedly exchanged. A 1 nM solution of a nonpolar analyte (BODIPY 493/503) in buffer was loaded onto the beads for different lengths of time using an electroosmotic flow of 1.2 nL/s. The material retained on the ODS phase was then eluted by electroosmotic flow of acetonitrile with a concentration enhancement of up to 500 times. Capillary electrochromatography was conducted using a similar device. BODIPY and fluorescein were loaded onto a 200-micron-long chromatographic bed and then separated in an isocratic CEC run with an acetonitrile/buffer mobile phase. Complete separation was achieved in less than 20 s with a 2-micron plate height.

Continuous microfluidic DNA extraction using phase-transfer magnetophoresis.

This paper reports a novel microfluidic-chip based platform using "phase-transfer magnetophoresis" enabling continuous biomolecule processing. As an example we demonstrate for the first time continuous DNA extraction from cell lysate on a microfluidic chip. After mixing bacterial Escherichia coli culture with superparamagnetic bead suspension, lysis and binding buffers, DNA is released from cel...

Heterogeneous immunoassays using magnetic beads on a digital microfluidic platform.

A digital microfluidic platform for performing heterogeneous sandwich immunoassays based on efficient handling of magnetic beads is presented in this paper. This approach is based on manipulation of discrete droplets of samples and reagents using electrowetting without the need for channels where the droplets are free to move laterally. Droplet-based manipulation of magnetic beads therefore doe...
