Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to fluidic systems and devices for processing, extracting, or purifying one or more analytes. These systems and devices can be used for processing samples and extracting nucleic acids, for example by isotachophoresis. In particular, the systems and related methods can allow for extraction of nucleic acids, including non-crosslinked nucleic acids, from samples such as tissue or cells. The systems and devices can also be used for multiplex parallel sample processing.

Claim (Index 6):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n (d) loading into a third channel of said microfluidic chip (i) a third sample comprising third nucleic acids and a third contaminant, (ii) a third trailing electrolyte buffer comprising third trailing ions, wherein a magnitude of an effective mobility of said third trailing ions is less than a magnitude of an effective mobility of said third nucleic acids, and (iii) a third leading electrolyte buffer comprising third leading ions, wherein a magnitude of an effective mobility of said third leading ions is greater than said magnitude of said effective mobility of said third nucleic acids, and (e) independently controlling a third electric circuit connected to said microfluidic chip to conduct isotachophoresis in said third channel with said third trailing ions, said third nucleic acids, and said third leading ions, thereby simultaneously purifying said first nucleic acids from said first contaminant, said second nucleic acids from said second contaminant, and said third nucleic acids from said third contaminant.
