A simple micropump based on a freeze-dried superabsorbent polymer for multiplex solution processing in disposable devices

We describe a simple micropump for disposable microfluidic devices. The pump is constructed using a freeze-dried disc of a superabsorbent polymer (SAP). The disc absorbs a solution in a flow channel and swells upward in a pumping chamber. Despite the simple structure of this device, the rate of abso...
