“…Droplet movement is effectively controlled by numerous actuated methods, including electrowetting on dielectric [ 2 ], thermocapillary force [ 3 ], surface acoustic waves [ 4 ], electrophoresis [ 5 ], optical force [ 6 ], and magnetic force [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ]. Among all actuation devices, magnetic-actuated droplet manipulators [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ] exhibit some advantages due to their flexibility, long distances, high driving forces, and easy use. Using droplets as micro-reactors, reagents can be transported, merged, mixed, and analyzed effectively [ 13 , 14 ].…”
