| Abstract: The present invention relates to adhesive-based microvalves, as well as
assemblies and cartridges having such microvalves. In particular
examples, substantially planar layers of adhesive materials are used to
construct both normally-open and normally-closed microvalves for fluid
control within microfluidic laminate cartridges. Such microvalves and
cartridges can be useful for medical, chemical, and biological
investigations. |
