Abstract

The present invention provides a driver system (20) for lab-on-a-chip cartridges (15). The driver system (20) comprises a matrix (10) comprising a plurality of active elements (1), a surface adapted for receiving the lab-on-a-chip cartridge (15), and driving means (32) adapted for individually and selectively driving groups of active elements (1) of the matrix (10), a group comprising at least one active element (1), so as to effectuate operation of the lab-on-a-chip cartridge (15). The driver system (20) according to embodiments of the invention is flexible and can be used with any type of lab-on-a-chip cartridges (15). The present invention furthermore provides a lab-on-a-chip system comprising such a driver system (20), a method for manufacturing such a driver system (20) and a method for driving a lab-on-a-chip cartridge (15) using such a driver system (20).
