Abstract:
An integrated semiconductor device for manipulating and processing bio-entity samples is disclosed. The device includes a microfluidic channel formed between a first substrate and a second substrate and a microfluidic grid formed over the first substrate and coupled to the microfluidic channel to manipulate a droplet within the microfluidic channel. The device further includes a magnetic field generation device included in the microfluidic grid and fluidic control circuitry coupled to the magnetic device to facilitate control of the magnetic field generation device to manipulate the droplet, when the droplet contains at least one magnetic bead, within the microfluidic channel.
