Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A multiport system suitable for pressure control on a lab-on-a-chip microfluidic device is described. An algorithm and a strategy for calculating pressures were developed to control the flow from multiple reservoirs for the microfluidic devices. Dye mixing and enzyme assay titration experiments were performed using pressure-driven flow only. Results show a good linear response over two orders of dynamic range.
