Algorithms for On-Chip Solution Preparation Using Digital Microfluidic Biochips

Digital micro fluidic (DMF) biochips have recently emerged as a very new technology for health-care and biochemical laboratory applications, as they are inexpensive, sensitive, fully-automated, integrated systems. In a DMF biochip, on-chip and automatic solution preparation requires solving of some algorithmic problems. In this paper, we present some results of our proposed algorithms for on-ship solution preparation using DMF biochips.
