Advanced Liquid Logic develops digital microfluidics with a lab-on-a-chip approach based upon direct programmable micromanipulation of nanoliter-sized droplets, which use electrical fields. Digital microfluidics enables complex, multi-step liquid handling protocols to be flexibly and scalably implemented in a nanoliter volume format. In general this powerful and flexible liquid handling technology can be applied wherever miniaturization of a liquid handling problem would be advantageous.
