    Abstract: A multizonal microfluidic device can include a substrate with multiple structures mounted thereon, including a first and second lid, and a first and second microchip. The first lid and the substrate can form a first microfluidic chamber between structures including a first interior surface of the first lid and a first discrete portion of the substrate. The first lid can include a first inlet and a first vent positioned relative to one another to facilitate loading of fluid to the first microfluidic chamber via capillary action. A portion of the first microchip can be positioned within the first microfluidic chamber. Furthermore, the second lid can be configured like the first lid and can also be mounted on the substrate forming a second microfluidic chamber with the second microchip positioned within the second microfluidic chamber.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is drawn to inertial pumps. An inertial pump can include a microfluidic channel, a fluid actuator located in the microfluidic channel, and a check valve located in the microfluidic channel. The check valve can include a moveable valve element, a narrowed channel segment located upstream of the moveable valve element, and a blocking element formed in the microfluidic channel downstream of the moveable valve element. The narrowed channel segment can have a width less than a width of the moveable valve element so that the moveable valve element can block fluid flow through the check valve when the moveable valve element is positioned in the narrowed channel segment. The blocking element can be configured such that the blocking element constrains the moveable valve element within the check valve while also allowing fluid flow when the moveable valve element is positioned against the blocking element.

    Abstract: An immiscible droplet generation system may include a chip, a microfluidic channel integrated into the chip, an input to the microfluidic channel through which the microfluidic channel is to be filled with a first fluid that is to be moved through the microfluidic channel and a droplet generator. The droplet generator is integrated into the chip to generate a droplet of a second fluid, immiscible within the first fluid, and to inject the droplet into the first fluid in the microfluidic channel.

    Abstract: Examples include polymerase chain reaction (PCR) devices. Example PCR devices comprise a fluid input, a fluid output, and a set of microfluidic channels that fluidly connect the fluid input and the fluid output. Each microfluidic channel comprises a reaction chamber, and examples further comprise at least one heating element, where the at least one heating element is positioned in the reaction chamber of each microfluidic channel. The at least one heating element is to heat fluid in the reaction chamber of each fluid channel, and the at least one heating element is to pump fluid to the reaction chamber and from the reaction chamber of each microfluidic channel.

    Abstract: An example system includes an input channel having a first end and a second end to receive particles through the first end, a separation chamber, at least two output channels, and an integrated pump to facilitate flow through the separation chamber. The separation chamber is in fluid communication with the second end of the input channel. The separation chamber has a passive separation structure, the passive separation structure including an array of columns spaced apart to facilitate separation of particles in a flow based on a size of the particles. Each output channel is in fluid communication with the separation chamber to receive separated particles. The integrated pump is positioned within at least one of the input channel or one of the at least two output channels.
