Problems solved by technology

However, when the microfluidic device includes a magnetic body, the attraction between the magnet included in the detection module and the magnet of the microfluidic device prevents the microfluidic device from being normally positioned in the rotation driving unit
As a result, the microfluidic device does not rotate properly and the test fails

Abstract

A test device includes a microfluidic device to conduct a test for biomolecules and controlled to prevent errors in the test, and a control method thereof includes mounting a microfluidic device on a tray, positioning a rotary drive unit at a center of the microfluidic device, and moving the rotary drive unit up and down at least once such that the microfluidic device is seated on the rotary drive unit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a testing device, and more particularly, to a testing device having a microfluidic device for biomolecular testing and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] Microfluidic devices are used to perform biological or chemical reactions by manipulating small quantities of fluids. [0003] Microfluidic structures provided in microfluidic devices to perform independent functions generally include chambers containing fluids, channels allowing fluids to flow therethrough, and members to regulate the flow of fluids. Chambers, channels and valves can be provided in the platform in various configurations. Microfluidic structures can be realized with various combinations of chambers, channels, and valves. A device fabricated by arranging such a microfluidic structure on a chip-shaped substrate to perform tests including immune-serum reactions or biochemical reactions and multi-step processing and manipul...
