Abstract :
An all-electrical approach for fast genetic testing is developed. The system employs a custom SoC fabricated in unmodified CMOS, which is embedded in a microfluidic cartridge together with proprietary biochemistry and delivers a result within 3 minutes. The system is fully scalable, allowing multiple genetic letters to be identified.
