Microfluidic device, microfluidic system and method for transporting fluids

摘要

A microfluidic device includes a first supply channel and a first discharge channel fluidically connected to one another by a first valve. The device also includes a second supply channel and a second discharge channel fluidically connected to one another by a second valve. At least one of the first channels can be fluidically connected to at least one of the second channels by a T-valve. The device also includes a control unit for controlling the valves, the control unit being configured in such a way that a first fluid from one of the first channels and a second fluid in one of the second channels can be laminated in parallel by actuating the valves in one of the first or second channels. A microfluidic system and a method for transporting fluids, and a use thereof are also disclosed.

主权项

1. A microfluidic device, comprising:
a first supply channel and a first discharge channel that are configured to be fluidically connected to one another by a first valve, a second supply channel and a second discharge channel that are configured to be fluidically connected to one another by a second valve, a T-valve directly connected to at least one of the first channels and at least one of the second channels and configured to directly fluidically connect the at least one of the first channels to the at least one of the second channels, and a control unit configured to control the valves such that a first fluid flows through the first valve and a different second fluid flows through the second valve with the T-valve in a closed position, the control unit being further configured such that the first fluid in one of the first channels and the second fluid in one of the second channels are laminated in parallel in one of the first channels or the second channels by actuating the T-valve to open and by actuating at least one of the first valve and the second valve.
