- LOC Lab-on-chip
- Detection methods often require several reagents in the chip system for molecular diagnostic tests. It is not always an easy-to-use and user-friendly on-chip storage in dried form, for example, lyophilized, possible. Another major difference between most molecular diagnostic tests and lateral flow test tires is the need to handle large volumes of analyte or wash solutions that are difficult to integrate on the chip due to their large volume of up to several milliliters. To meet these requirements, e.g. External chip storage vessels used with external syringe pumps and connections to the chip. Alternatively, the reagents are added manually to the reservoirs or reaction chambers of the chip. While it can easily pump in the first variant to impurities or air pulling the syringes, make in the second variant, especially operator errors by the user is a problem. In addition, are also

- Waste reservoir are crucial, such as a disinfectant.
- the waste reservoir in a preferred embodiment may contain an absorbent material, preferably a superabsorbent or superabsorbent particles or fibers, so that nothing can escape from the device in the return flow of waste fluid. This is particularly advantageous if the device is aligned vertically in the application and the waste reservoir is filled from below.

- the vent is closed, so that no fluid can escape or contaminants can penetrate from the outside.
- this vent only consists of each other! foil areas not welded in this area. As long as the device is held vertically, air can escape through the intermediate gap, but fluids do not. Thus, the contamination of other system components such as the laboratory device or connecting hoses is avoided.
- the capillary venting channel is closed after filling the cavity, e.g. by welding, clamping or with an adhesive film, so that leakage or contamination of the liquid during storage and during operation is particularly reliably avoided.

- preferably automatic welding devices, plugs, seals, clamps or adhesive films are used.
- sealing cone designates a component, by way of which a fluidic connection can be produced between the at least one cavity and the microfluidic system Moreover, the sealing cone serves for closing the at least one cavity In the simplest embodiment, however, filling and emptying of the cavity takes place only via the sealing cone, ie the hermetically sealed storage takes place only by closing and opening the sealing cone fluidic functionality and the number of cavities, the device also has a plurality of sealing cones.

- sealing cones When opening the sealing cones, it is possible that by pressure on a point several sealing cones are opened simultaneously, e.g. if they are superimposed or sequentially connected to each other and are opened by a pressure point. Conversely, it is possible that by pressure on a sealing cone liquid can pass from several cavities, since all cavities are closed by the same sealing cone. This is particularly advantageous when fluids from different cavities, e.g. Sample and buffer solution, to be mixed together. In another variant, it is possible to open several cavities in succession by sequentially pressing a plurality of sealing cones.
- the device has a plurality of cavities, which are arranged as on a punched card.
- the movable roller is therefore similar to a peristaltic pump. Due to the speed of the roller and the cross-section of the cavities in the device, the volume flow in the microfluidic system can also be controlled.
- the sealing cone serves as an adjustment aid when inserting or arranging the device on a microfluidic system, since the sealing cone is inserted accurately into the system.
