Sample loading and retrieval by centrifugation in a closed-loop PCR microchip
We report on a novel concept of sample loading for microfluidic devices using a benchtop centrifuge and a magnetically actuated circular closed-loop PCR microchip as a model system. The PCR mixture and the ferrofluid were loaded into a specially designed microchip. The microchip was then placed in a...
