Benefits of technology

[0032]In one aspect, the first actuator component comprises an actuator plate configured to be movable in the first direction and including a cam follower element; the second actuator component comprises a platen configured to be movable in the second direction; and the motion conversion mechanism comprises a cam body having a cam surface, said cam body being coupled to said platen and being configured such that the cam follower element of the actuator plate engages the cam surface of the cam body as the actuator plate moves in the first direction thereby causing movement of the cam body that results in movement of the platen in the second direction.

Problems solved by technology

One major challenge in the area of clinical and molecular diagnostics is the ability to have a “sample to answer” system that allows minimal sample handling and preparation, rapid assays as well as no requirement for highly trained laboratory personnel.
While many systems have been proposed, to date there are virtually no such commercial systems.

I. Introduction

[0109]One major challenge in the area of clinical and molecular diagnostics is the ability to have a “sample to answer” system that allows minimal sample handling and preparation as well as no requirement for trained clinical lab personnel. While many systems have been proposed, to date there are virtually no such commercial systems. The present invention provides such an integrated, multiplex system. One of the significant benefits of the present system is that in many embodiments, the chip itself needs no moving parts, such as valves or pumps, due to the unique transport properties of the electrowetting system described below.

[0110]The present invention provides molecular diagnostic methods and compositions based on the detection of target analytes, including nucleic acids. The systems described herein are complete integrated “sample to answer” systems, in contrast with current commercial systems that require some off chip handling of the sample, generally including...
