Abstract
A microfluidic device is provided that comprises: a substrate; and a plurality of microvolumes at least partially defined by the substrate, each microvolume comprising a first submicrovolume and a second submicrovolume in fluid communication with the first submicrovolume when the device is rotated about a first rotational axis; wherein rotation of the device about the first rotational axis causes a fixed volume to be transported to each of the second submicrovolumes.

A microfluidic device comprising:
- a substrate;
- a first microvolume at least partially defined by the substrate comprising
- a first submicrovolume;
- a second submicrovolume where fluid in the first submicrovolume is transported to the second submicrovolume when the device is rotated about a first rotational axis;
- and
- a second microvolume at least partially defined by the substrate comprising
- a third submicrovolume;
- a fourth submicrovolume where fluid in the third submicrovolume is transported to the fourth submicrovolume when the device is rotated about the first rotational axis;
- and
- wherein fluid in the second and fourth submicrovolumes are transported to a fifth submicrovolume where the second and fourth submicrovolumes are mixed when the device is rotated about a second, different rotational axis.
