MICROFLUIDIC DEVICE FOR PREPARING AND ANALYSING A BIOLOGICAL SAMPLE

A microfluidic device includes a single rigid support and a first unit having a first chamber of nonzero volume delimited by walls of the support. A filter separates the first chamber into a first space and a second space, a first channel made in the support and a second channel. The device also includes a second unit including a second chamber, a third channel. The device further includes a first fluidic transfer channel between the first chamber and the second chamber, made in the support and opening on the one hand into said second chamber and on the other hand at a first bypass node in the second channel. The device including first flow switching means arranged for selecting connection of the first chamber to the exterior only, via the second channel only or to the second chamber only, through the first transfer channel.
