  • Microfluidic devices with bubble diversion
    Patent number: 11596944
    Abstract: A microfluidics device has one or more bubble diversion regions. Problems associated with the generation of air bubbles are avoided in a microfluidics device such as a cartridge, for use with a point of care (POC) diagnostics device, the cartridge being able to carry out downstream processing such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and/or nucleic acid capture. The bubble diversion region has a lower flow resistance than the flow resistance of an area of interest.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 15, 2018
    Date of Patent: March 7, 2023
    Assignee: QUANTUMDX GROUP LIMITED
