摘要 |
The invention relates to a multiplexed valve for microfluidic devices, which valve is designed to establish fluidic communication, or interrupt said fluidic communication, between: a microfluidic inlet and a plurality of microfluidic outlets, a plurality of microfluidic inlets and a microfluidic outlet, or a plurality of microfluidic inlets and a plurality of microfluidic outlets. The structure of the multiplexed valve is characterised by a structure, preferably a multi-layer structure, formed by a support base, an elastically deformable membrane and a moveable rigid part. Said moveable rigid part permits a number of positions, generating combinations of states for the selective opening or closing of the fluidic communications between the inlets and outlets. |
