Microfluidic multipoles theory and applications

Microfluidic multipoles use arrays of sources and sinks to confine fluids and reagents without the use of physical channels. Here the authors use conformal mappings to predict both convective and diffusive transport in these flows and 3D print multipoles to automate surface-based immunoassays.
