Abstract: A portable DNA extraction device for field-based genetic testing enables rapid and on-site sample processing. The system integrates microfluidic and mechanical components to isolate DNA from biological samples efficiently. Collected samples are processed using automated protocols for lysis, purification, and concentration. Embedded sensors and a microcontroller monitor process parameters to ensure high-quality DNA yield. The device supports integration with downstream genetic analysis tools such as PCR or sequencing platforms. Wireless or cloud connectivity allows remote data logging and real-time monitoring. Compact and lightweight design ensures portability for field applications in clinical, agricultural, or environmental settings. Low power operation enables extended usage without frequent recharging. Automated alerts notify users of process errors or completion status. Data encryption ensures security of sensitive genetic information. Continuous optimization improves extraction efficiency and reproducibility. Historical data supports quality control and comparative studies. This intelligent device provides a reliable, rapid, and scalable solution for field- based genetic testing and diagnostics.
