This paper reports the design and investigation of a digital micro magnetofluidic platform for lab-on-a-chip applications. The platform allows a ferrofluid droplet to be driven along a preprogrammed path. The platform consists of a programmable x-y-positioning stage, a permanent magnet and a glass p...
