Project Title: High-throughput droplet-based microfluidics |
| Supervisor |
Steve Shih |
| Description |
The goal of this project is to design a control board that can be integrated into a microfluidic automation setup and provides rapid and autonomous sorting of droplets into binary microchannels with very high throughput (> 1000 droplet/s). The proposed electronic system must:
• Be modular and interface with existing automation infrastructure
• Provide fast response with high efficiency (high-speed on/off switches)
• Provide rapid droplet actuation
• Realtime response
• Have software interface
• Have signal processing module for PMT connections
Additionally, emphasis will be placed on creating a system that is compact and portable.
