Abstract

Enhancement of surface binding reactions for a sensitive analyte detection is achieved by an active flow control technique by local Joule heating of the liquid. The controlled flow occurs as the electrothermal (ET) flow and the reaction dynamics to evaluate the effect of the ET flow on the reaction enhancement was investigated through simulation and experiment. As a result, it is found that the ET flow can enhance the reaction significantly at a specific spot by delivering analytes intensively to the spot.
