Photograph of the digital microfluidic Automaton. The 4-way microvalves control fluid flow through a rectilinear grid of discontinuous fluidic channels. The inset shows a close up portion of the array with a single microvalve storing dye in an automated program. The individual microvalves in this array serve as 120 nL reaction chambers as well as fluidic control mechanisms.
