Abstract
Described herein is a device comprising: a plurality of first reaction electrodes arranged in an array, the plurality of first reaction electrodes configured to be exposed to a fluid and having a capacitance; first circuitry configured to controllably set the plurality of first reaction electrode to a predetermined voltage and allow the capacitance of the plurality of first reaction electrode to charge or discharge through the fluid; and second circuitry configured to measure a rate of charging or discharging of the capacitance of the plurality of first reaction electrodes. Also described herein is a method of using this device to sequence DNA.
