Abstract
Devices and methods use an integrated microfluidic system that has the capability of realizing a wide range of accurate dilutions in a logarithmic way through semi-direct dilution of samples inside a chip. The device for dose response analysis is able to contain a first fluid source on a microfluidic chip, wherein the first fluid source comprises a drug, a second fluid source on the microfluidic chip, a mixing area on the microfluidic chip fluidically coupling with the first and the second fluidic source, and a detection area coupling with the mixing area for drug information detection using a detection system.
