Methods for reducing fluid carryover by microfluidic devices including capillary element (102) and/or fluid motion. The capillary element (102) is typically fluidly coupled with a port, such as well on microwell plate (106), external to body structure (100). Capillary elements coated with hydrophobic or hydrophilic coatings to resist fluid carryover caused by a drop (104) are also provided. Microfluidic device handling systems are additionally included.

L'invention concerne des procédés permettant de réduire un report fluidique dans des dispositifs microfluidiques, qui comprennent un élément capillaire (102) et/ou un déplacement fluidique. L'élément capillaire (102) est généralement couplé à un orifice, tel qu'un puits ménagé sur une plaque de micro-puits (106) extérieure à une structure de corps (100). L'invention concerne également des éléments capillaires recouverts de revêtements hydrophobes ou hydrophiles permettant de résister à un report fluidique provoqué par une goutte (104). L'invention concerne enfin un système de manipulation de dispositifs microfluidiques.
