Abstract:

Biological assays around “lab-on-a-chip (LoC)” are required in multiple concentration (or dilution) factors, satisfying specific sample concentrations. Unfortunately, most of them suffer from non-locality and are non-protectable, requiring a large footprint and high purchase cost. A digital geometric technique can generate arbitrary gradient profiles for digital microfluidic biochips (DMFBs). A next- generation DMFB has been proposed based on the microelectrode-dot-array (MEDA) architectures are shown to produce and disperse droplets by channel dispensing and lamination mixing. Prior work in this area must address the problem of reactant and waste minimization and concurrent sample preparation for multiple target concentrations. This paper proposes the first splitting-droplet sharing algorithm for reactant and waste minimization of multiple target concentrations on MEDAs. The proposed algorithm not only minimizes the consumption of reagents but also reduces the number of waste droplets by preparing the target concentrations concurrently. Experimental results on a sequence of exponential gradients are presented in support of the proposed method and demonstrate its effectiveness and efficiency. Compared to prior work, the proposed algorithm can achieve up to a 24.8% reduction in sample usage and reach an average of 50% reduction in waste droplets. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2024.
