Model microfluidic platform prototyping : design and fabrication of a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) chip

[摘要] (cont.) An instrumented microfluidic platform was developed and experiments were carried out to investigate amplification efficiency. Different vapor barrier mechanisms and channel coatings were explored for minimizing sample loss. The research presented is an effort towards developing miniaturized, cost-effective, portable platform capable of replacing conventional thermocyclers.
