Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2830777A1] Microfluid pump for non-magnetic fluid, has a cell with a chamber to contain magnetic fluid (5) which will not mix with the non-magnetic fluid (7) to be pumped. Magnet unit (6) applies a local magnetic field to the fluid causing a depression to be filled by the non-magnetic fluid. The magnetic field can be shifted, so that the non-magnetic fluid is moved between inflow (3) and outflow (4).
