Abstract: In a microfluidic assembly (20), a microfluidic device (1') is provided with a body (4) in which at least a first inlet (7) for loading a fluid to analyse and a buried area (8) in fluidic communication with the first inlet (7) are defined. An analysis chamber (10') is in fluidic communication with the buried area (8) and an interface cover (23) is coupled in a fluid-tight manner above the microfluidic device (1'). The interface cover (23) is provided with a sealing portion (35) in correspondence to the analysis chamber (10'), adapted to assume a first configuration, at rest, in which it leaves the analysis chamber (10') open, and a second configuration, as a consequence of a stress, in which it closes in a fluid-tight manner the same analysis chamber.
