Title:
DEVICE FOR OPERATING PACKET IN MICROCHANNEL OR OTHER MICRO CONTAINER
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2013091060
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a microfluidic device and a method for performing chemical or physical treatment to at least one packet without contamination.

The microfluidic device 1 includes a microchannel 2 having an axis X, and a packet operating means including at least one of a generator unit 9 and an electrode assembly 3 connected to the generator unit 9 and configured to create, inside at least one portion of the microchannel, an electric field that is substantially collinear with the axis X of the microchannel, wherein the generator unit 9 is capable of creating the electric field with such an amplitude and frequency as to deform the at least one packet or to move at least two packets toward each other in the microchannel.
