Abstract

UAV systems in biochemistry is an emerging field of research that offers to advance optimal medical care through improved timeliness in diagnosis. This thesis reviews the relevant literature on liquid characteristics and current UAV technologies. It then proceeds to study drop behaviour on superhydrophobic surfaces with the objective of creating a practicable UAV system able to conduct biochemical applications. While this objective was not fully achieved, it revealed important insights relevant in the use of vials and capillary tubes. Through the use of manoeuvres and modification of elements, bio-chemical processes such as mixing and centrifugation were attained.
