Lab On A Chip Devices Typically Have An Electrical Circuitry, Electrodes, Sensors, And Microchannels

A tiny device known as a Lab On A Chip merges various laboratory analysis procedures onto a single chip. Through the use of lab-on-chip technology, many laboratory analysis methods, including biochemical detection, DNA sequencing, PCR, and others, may be smoothly integrated

For analytical chemistry and biological diagnostics, the mixing and pumping of microfluids and molecules in microfluidic and Lab On A Chip systems is very desirable. The task is particularly difficult, though, because of the extremely low Reynolds number that is constrained in microchannels. Rotary micromotors powered by electric tweezers are employed as micromixers in the microfluidic device to increase mixing efficiency. In a demonstration, the diatom frustule, a sort of natural bio-microstructure, is altered and put together into micromotors. It's crucial to comprehend electrokinetically-driven liquid flow in microchannels when constructing and managing several lab-on-a-chip devices.

Miniaturized biomedical or chemistry laboratories constructed on a tiny glass or plastic chip are called "lab-on-a-chip" devices. A Lab On A Chip device typically consists of an electrical circuitry, a network of electrodes, sensors, and microchannels. On the chip, electrodes are positioned in key areas. The chip's other activities and the liquid flow are controlled by electrical fields that are applied along microchannels. These labs on a chip may do specialised tasks like clinical diagnostics, DNA scanning, and electrophoretic separation just like their room-sized equivalents.
