PASSIVE OPTOFLUIDIC DEVICE

Abstract: a passive optofluidic device capable of making a microfluidic fluid flow downward to a test zone via an entrance at one side of a three-dimensional microfluidic structure, and then rise upward to a bridge passage by means of a capillary action provided by an uplink microfluidic passage on the other side of the three-dimensional microfluidic structure, and then flow downward to a waste holding tank through the bridge passage, thereby enabling the microfluidic fluid to flow through the test zone to undergo an optical detection without the need of electrical energy and an infusion pump.
