Abstract

An all-PDMS, three-valve peristaltic pump is characterized for programmable lab-on-a-chip (PLoC) applications. To achieve programmability, the pumping mechanism must be efficient, reliable and predictable. To this end, we analyze the behavior of the pump to attain an optimal pumping sequence and efficient metering. In addition, pump fatigue is also assessed to estimate chip lifetime. The overall goal of this project is to build a general-purpose PLoC system.
