Abstract:
A process for providing a dynamic method set for treatment and/or analyses of samples, including methods associated to a special microfluidic device type used in a microfluidic system comprising at least one central processor and storage means for computer program code, the of:displaying predetermined operations of stored predetermined microfluidic device operations for treatment and/or analyses of samples; collecting a number of predetermined operations from said stored and displayed predetermined microfluidic device operations and adding said collected predetermined operations to a temporary set; running an edit checking step for accepting or rejecting said temporary set of operations for treatment and/or analyses of samples, wherein said edit checking step makes use of a set of rules related to the special microfluidic device type and to other logical rules; storing said checked and accepted microfluidic device type set of operations under a specific method name and in a format applicable for transfer to said dynamic method set.
