Automated path selection technique while incorporating multiple assay operations and cross-contamination avoidance in cross-referencing DMFBs
TL;DR: In this paper , a cross-referencing digital microfluidic biochips (DMFBs) with an efficient module placement design can be declared as a multifunctional chip or not, and a chip design which incorporates parallelism for enhancing performance in terms of assay completion time while performing multiple types of bioassays.

Rapid droplet mixers for digital microfluidic systems.
TL;DR: This paper studies the effects of varying droplet aspect ratios on linear-array droplet mixers, and proposes mixing strategies applicable for both high and low aspect ratio systems, and presents a split-and-merge mixer that takes advantage of the ability to perform droplet splitting at these ratios.

Electrowetting-based droplet mixers for microfluidic systems
TL;DR: In this paper, an alternative mixing strategy is presented based on the discretization of liquids into droplets and further manipulation of those droplets by electrowetting, where interfacial tensions of the droplets are controlled with the application of voltage.

Principles of droplet electrohydrodynamics for lab-on-a-chip.
Jun Zeng,Tom Korsmeyer +1 more
TL;DR: This study shows that both electrowetting on dielectric and dielectrophoresis are effective for droplet generation and manipulation, and demonstrates: (1) the presence of a wetting contribution to dielectophoresis; and (2) contact angle reduction is merely an observable consequence of, not a condition for, the occurrence of electrowsetting onDielectric.

Droplet Routing in the Synthesis of Digital Microfluidic Biochips
TL;DR: This work develops the first systematic droplet routing method that can be integrated with biochip synthesis, which minimizes the number of cells used fordroplet routing, while satisfying constraints imposed by throughput considerations and fluidic properties.
