Investigation of capacitance dependence on droplet volume in MEDA based biochips

Digital microfluidics biochips has led to the revolution of modern day clinical diagnostics procedures. These biochips enable the use of nano-liter volume of samples and reagents. A more recent architecture of digital microfluidics known as Micro-electrode Dot Array (MEDA) has been introduced which...
