| 1 | Sliding walls: a new paradigm for fluidic actuation and protocol implementation in microfluidics显示文摘Currently,fluidic control in microdevices is mainly achieved either by external pumps and valves,which are expensive and bulky,or by valves integrated in the chip.Numerous types of internal valves or actuation methods have been proposed,but they generally impose difficult compromises between performance and fabrication complexity.We propose here a new paradigm for actuation in microfluidic devices based on rigid or semi-rigid walls with transversal dimensions of hundreds of micrometres that are able to slide within a microfluidic chip and to intersect microchannels with hand-driven or translation stage-based actuation.With this new concept for reconfigurable microfluidics,the implementation of a wide range of functionalities was facilitated and allowed for no or limited dead volume,low cost and low footprint.We demonstrate here several fluidic operations,including on/off or switch valving,where channels are blocked or reconfigured depending on the sliding wall geometry.The valves sustain pressures up to 30kPa.Pumping and reversible compartmentalisation of large microfluidic chambers were also demonstrated.This last possibility was applied to a“4D”migration assay of dendritic cells in a collagen gel.Finally,sliding walls containing a hydrogel-based membrane were developed and used to concentrate,purify and transport biomolecules from one channel to another,such functionality involving complex fluidic transport patterns not possible in earlier microfluidic devices.Overall,this toolbox is compatible with“soft lithography”technology,allowing easy implementation within usual fabrication workflows for polydimethylsiloxane chips.This new technology opens the route to a variety of microfluidic applications,with a focus on simple,hand-driven devices for point-of-care or biological laboratories with low or limited equipment and resources. | Bastien Venzac Yang Liu Ivan Ferrante Pablo Vargas Ayako Yamada Remi Courson Marine Verhulsel Laurent Malaquin Jean-Louis Viovy Stephanie Descroix | 2020 | Microsystems & Nanoengineering2020，6，1： | 1 |
