Embodiments of the disclosure include methods and apparatuses for separating beads from a droplet main body on a microfluidics actuator by applying a magnetic field to a droplet disposed at a first location, the droplet including one or more magnetically responsive beads; and moving the magnetic field to separate the one or more magnetically responsive beads from a main body of the droplet. Embodiments also include methods and apparatuses for introducing one or more beads into a droplet main body by applying a magnetic field to one or more magnetically responsive beads and moving the magnetic field to introduce the one or more magnetically responsive beads into a droplet disposed on a first location, wherein the droplet includes a fluid.
