Area of Science:

  • Microfluidics
  • Biochemical Engineering
  • Quantitative Imaging

Background:

  • Precise fluid handling is crucial in pharmaceuticals, food production, and biochemical research.
  • Microfluidic droplet technology offers advantages for nanoliter-scale manipulation but faces challenges with volume deviation and 3D measurement.
  • Existing droplet injection methods struggle with external disturbances and 2D measurement limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an on-demand microfluidic droplet injection system with enhanced precision and adaptability.
  • To integrate quantitative phase imaging (QPI) for 3D visualization feedback.
  • To address volume deviation issues in microfluidic fluid actuation.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a novel microfluidic droplet injection system.
  • Integration of quantitative phase imaging (QPI) for real-time 3D droplet visualization.
  • Implementation of a dual-pressure-pulse (DPP) method for precise fluid actuation.
  • Comparative experiments against passive methods and dynamic response testing.

Main Results:

  • Achieved a coefficient of variation (CV) of 7.03% for injection precision, a 4.5-fold improvement over passive methods.
  • Demonstrated rapid adaptation to target volume changes with deviations below 2%.
  • Successfully controlled isoconcentration of selenium-containing droplets with deviations of 1.17% and 2.5%.

Conclusions:

  • The novel system significantly enhances microfluidic droplet injection precision and adaptability.
  • The integration of QPI and DPP methods overcomes limitations of traditional approaches.
  • The system shows strong potential for applications demanding stringent volume and concentration control.
