Abstract

See full text

An actively temperature regulated microfluidic chip assembly includes a first thermally conductive body, a second thermally conductive body attached to the first thermally conductive body, a microfluidic chip encapsulated between the first and second thermally conductive bodies, and a temperature regulating element mounted to the first thermally conductive body for adding heat to or alternately removing heat from the chip. The temperature of the chip and thus the liquid contained and/or flowing therein can be regulated by measuring the temperature of the liquid and operating the temperature regulating element to establish a thermal gradient toward or alternately away from the liquid based on the measured temperature and in comparison with a desired set point temperature.
