Reduce Workflow and Sample Volume Limitations

Multiplexed assays, including nucleic acid detection and immunoassays, combine assays for many target analytes in a single reaction volume, reducing workflow and sample volume limitations. When detecting similar analytes, cross reactions can have a negative impact on the results. Current microfluidic solutions to this problem involve spatial separation of critical reactions by bead-based flow cytometry, microwells, and micro reaction chambers. Additionally, microfluidic platforms implement precise aliquoting functions leading to improved accuracy and precision, reduced consumption of sample and reagents, and the ability to automate research tasks on one card or chip. The throughput of such lab-on-a-chip devices can be increased additionally by parallelization of assay procedures on one card.
