ABSTRACT
Biochips, a novel technology in the field of biomolecular analysis, offer a promising alternative to conventional testing equipment. These chips integrate multiple functions within a single system, providing a compact and efficient solution for various testing needs. For biochips, a pattern-control micro-electrode-dot-array (MEDA) is a new, universally viable design that can replace microchannels and other micro-components. In a Micro Electrode Dot Array (MEDA), each electrode can be programmatically controlled or dynamically grouped, allowing a single chip to fulfill the diverse requirements of different tests. This capability not only enhances flexibility, but also contributes to cost reduction by eliminating the need for multiple specialized chips. In this paper, we present a visible biochip testing system for tracking the entire testing process in real time, and describe our application of the system to detect SARS-CoV-2.
