More Information
Summary:A cartridge for use with an instrument to perform measurement of a fluid, including a digital microfluidics substrate comprising a plurality of electrowetting electrodes operative to perform droplet operations on a liquid droplet in a droplet operations gap; a top plate separated from the digital microfluidics substrate to form a droplet operations gap and comprising openings for injecting liquids into the droplet operations gap; a fiber assembly comprising a fiber optic probe projecting into the droplet operations gap and having a sensing end situated in proximity with one or more of the electrowetting electrodes.
