Zusammenfassung:A microfluidic device (10) including a fluidic pumping system (30) is provided. Some embodiments include a fluid-carrying channel (22), a plurality of acoustic pumping elements (32) arranged along the fluid-carrying channel, wherein the acoustic pumping elements (32) are configured to form an acoustic wave focused within the channel (22), and a controller (200) in electrical communication with the plurality of acoustic pumping elements (32), the controller (200) being configured to activate the acoustic pumping elements (32) in such a manner as to cause the acoustic wave to move along the channel (22) to move the fluid through the channel (22).
