Abstract | Digital microfluidics (DMF) is an emerging technology to manipulate individual microliter- to nanoliter-sized droplets on an array of electrodes by electro-wetting force [1]. Its features of electric driving and miniature footprint render it a promising technology for point-of-care diagnostics. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the kernel of molecular biology and diagnostics. This temperature- dependent technique amplifies DNA in an exponential way by cycles of heating and cooling. A typical PCR often takes 1-2 h in a bulky thermal cycler. In clinical point-of-care diagnostics, reaction time and specificity of the reaction are vital to clinical decisions. Many ultra-fast PCR methods have been developed [2], exploiting the miniaturization feature of microfluidics or capillary reactors. However, they still need large accessories to support the heating and cooling process. |
