This presentation will focus on the work performed during the Coat PoCKET project, where Micronit Microtechnologies and Surfix join forces to bring the technology for fabricating advanced point-of-care diagnostic tests to the next level. The project aims at the development of a polymer-based microfluidic chip enabling sequential flow of liquids without using external pumps. This is achieved through an innovative combination of local surface modification and electrostatically actuated capillary valves.
