Popis: |
We report the first demonstration of interfacial tension monitoring across two immiscible liquids using electrowetting on dielectric (EWOD). Impedance measurement during EWOD reveals the variation of surfactant concentration at the liquid-liquid interface in real time. The discrepancy with optical method was within 3.5 mN/m and the noise level was under 0.5 mN/m. We also show such approach can be used for label-free monitoring of DNA hybridization. Our approach opens a new horizon of EWOD used as a molecular sensing mechanism across a “soft” interface between liquids. |
