Description

(1) Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the field of microfluidic chip analysis, in particular to a capacitive sensor-based microfluidic droplet detection system and detection method. (two) background technology: [0002] The microfluidic chip integrates the basic operation units involved in the fields of biology and chemistry, such as sample preparation, reaction, separation, detection, cell culture, sorting, and lysis, on a chip of several square centimeters. A network of microchannels is formed to run through the entire system with controllable fluids to replace various functions of conventional chemical or biological laboratories. The biggest advantage of microfluidic chips is the flexible combination and large-scale integration of various unit technologies on an overall controllable micro platform, which makes microfluidic chips likely to become an important platform for the development of biochemical analysis technology in the future. Droplet microfluidic...
