  • Patent number: 11964277
    Abstract: A metered volume microfluidic device can include fluid flow microfluidics. The fluid flow microfluidics can include an inflow channel, a metered volume chamber positioned to receive working fluid from the inflow channel, a metered volume outflow channel positioned to receive and direct a metered volume of the working fluid when discharged from the metered volume chamber, and a capillary check valve. The capillary check valve can allow excess working fluid to exit the metered volume chamber when filling the metered volume chamber via the inflow channel. The capillary check valve can also prevent excess working fluid that has passed there through from being reintroduced into the metered volume chamber when the working fluid is discharged into the metered volume outflow channel.

  • Publication number: 20240100530
    Abstract: A sample preparation blister pack can include a plurality of reservoirs formed as blisters. The reservoirs can have an actuatable barrier layer and a seal barrier layer with contents of the reservoirs between the actuatable barrier layer and the seal barrier layer. The contents can be to facilitate isolating a biological component from a biological sample. The individual reservoirs can be adapted to release the contents through the seal barrier layer upon actuation of the actuatable barrier layer. The blister pack can have a width and a length and the reservoirs can be lined up along the length. In this example, a first reservoir contains an inert mechanical fluid and a second reservoir contains a reagent, a buffer, or a combination thereof.

  • Patent number: 11857965
    Abstract: A microfluidic valve can include a substrate having a microfluidic channel formed in the substrate. A sealing layer can be over the microfluidic channel. A flexible blister layer can be over the sealing layer. The flexible blister layer can include a blister formed as a distended portion with a blister volume between the flexible blister layer and the sealing layer. The microfluidic valve can be actuatable by puncturing the sealing layer by pressing on the blister. Actuating the microfluidic valve can either allow fluid to flow through the microfluidic channel or block fluid from flowing through the microfluidic channel.

  • Patent number: 10836176
    Abstract: The subject matter discloses a fluid cartridge comprising a container to hold a predetermined volume of fluid, and a lid for closing the container. The lid comprises a valve-recess and an inlet valve in the valve-recess to transfer a volume of a replacement fluid in the container for replacing depleted volume of fluid in the container. A rocker valve is pivoted in the valve-recess to cover the inlet valve during a regulation phase. The rocker valve is to open the inlet valve during an actuation phase to allow the replacement fluid to enter the container. A spring element is movably disposed on the rocker valve to control actuation of the rocker valve for opening and closing the inlet valve. The spring element slides across the rocker valve, from a regulation zone of the rocker valve to an actuation zone of the rocker valve, to open the inlet valve.
