Abstract:
A method for processing an image of a micro fluidic device. The method includes receiving a first image of a micro fluidic device. The first image corresponds to a first state. Additionally, the method includes receiving a second image of the micro fluidic device. The second image corresponds to a second state. Moreover, the method includes transforming the first image and the second image into a third coordinate space (520). Also, the method includes obtaining a third image based on at least information associated (540) with the transformed first image and the transformed second image, and processing the third image to obtain information (550) associated with the first state and the second state.

Abstract:
A method of adjusting amplification curves in a PCR experiment includes receiving a plurality of amplification curves for a sample and computing a first parameter for each of the plurality of amplification curves. The method also includes computing a second parameter for each of the plurality of amplification curves and computing a third parameter using at least a portion of the first or second parameters. The method further includes computing an offset for each of the plurality of amplification curves. The offset is a function of the first parameter and the third parameter. Moreover, the method includes adjusting at least one of the plurality of amplification curves by subtracting the offset.

Abstract:
A biological substrate, e.g., microfluidic chip. The substrate includes a rigid substrate material, which has a surface region capable of acting as a handle substrate. The substrate also has a deformable fluid layer coupled to the surface region. One or more well regions are formed in a first portion of the deformable fluid layer and are capable of holding a fluid therein. The one or more channel regions are formed in a second portion of the deformable fluid layer and are coupled to one or more of the well regions. An active region is formed in the deformable fluid layer. At least three fiducial markings are formed within the non-active region and disposed in a spatial manner associated with at least one of the well regions. A control layer is coupled to the fluid layer.
