Abstract

See full text

A removable microfluidics structure comprising at least one actuated fluid delivery element, wherein the actuated fluid delivery element is a pump element of a valve element configured to control fluid delivery to or from a removable media detachably coupled with the removable microfluidics structure based on an actuation force. The actuation force is an external actuation force or an internal actuation force. The removable microfluidics structure may include an electromechnical actuator for providing the actuation force, such as a solenoid, a solenoid with an ferromagnetic core or a piezoelectric actuator. The removable microfluidics structure may further include a coupling mechanism for detachably coupling the removable microfluidics structure with the removable media, such as a cell array, such that when the microfluidics structure couples with the removable media, the microfluidics structure controls fluid delivery to or from a cell of the cell array.
