Sequential operations of pre-separation reaction process by picoliter droplets and following electrophoretic separation process were realized in a single microfluidic device with pneumatic handling of liquid. The developed device consists of a fluidic chip made of PDMS, an electrode substrate, and a temperature control substrate on which thin film heater/sensor structures are fabricated. Liquid handling, including introduction of liquid samples, droplet generation, and merging of droplets, was implemented by pneumatic manipulation through microcapillary vent structures, allowing air to pass and stop liquid flow. Since the pneumatic manipulations are conducted in a fully automated manner by using a programmable air pressure control system, the user simply has to load liquid samples on each liquid port of the device. Droplets of 420 pL were generated with an accuracy of ± 2 pL by applying droplet generation pressure in the range of 40-100 kPa. As a demonstration, a binding reaction of a 15 mer ssDNA with a peptide nucleic acid oligomer used as an oligoprobe followed by denaturing electrophoresis to discriminate a single-base substitution was performed within 1.5 min. By exploiting the droplet-on-demand capability of the device, the influence of various factors, such as reaction time, mixing ratio and droplet configurations on the ssDNA-peptide nucleic acid binding reaction in the droplet-based process, was studied toward realization of a rapid detection method to discriminate rapid single-base substitution. 相似文献

A new nonlinear optical method is presented to detect proteins binding to a gold surface without using fluorescent-dye labeling. After exposure of the protein-binding surface to a gold nanosphere solution, the nanospheres are immobilized above a gold surface with a nanogap supported by the protein. The gold nanospheres immobilized on the gold surface show strong localized surface plasmon (LSP) resonance, and the formation of this structure results in a marked increase in the optical second harmonic (SH) activity of the gold surface arising from a large enhancement of the electric field localized adjacent to the nanospheres on the LSP resonance. The SH image, therefore, gives a high contrast ratio, 7.0:1, of protein-binding spots to control spots. The contrast ratio is much greater than those obtained by linear reflectivity imaging. 相似文献

We have investigated linear and nonlinear optical properties of surface immobilized gold nanospheres (SIGNs) above a gold surface with a gap distance of a few nanometers. The nanogap was supported by amine or merocyanine terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiolates. A large second-harmonic generation (SHG) was observed from the SIGN systems at localized surface plasmon resonance condition. The maximum enhancement factor of SHG intensity was found to be 3 x 10(5) for the SIGN system of nanospheres 100 nm in diameter with a gap distance of 0.8 nm. The corresponding susceptibility was estimated to be chi((2))=750 pmV (1.8 x 10(-6) esu). In the SIGN system supported with the merocyanine terminated SAMs, the SHG response was also resonant to the merocyanine in the nanogap. It was found that the SHG response of the SIGN systems is strongly frequency dependent. This leads us to conclude that the large chi((2)) is caused by enhanced electric fields at the localized surface plasmon resonance condition and is not due to an increase of the surface susceptibility following from the presence of the gold nanospheres. The observed SHG was consistent with the theoretical calculations involving Fresnel correction factors, based on the quasistatic approximation. 相似文献

We have developed and tested a functionally integrated in situ analyzer, the IISA-ATP system, for microbial activity assays based on a quantitative determination of the total (particulate and dissolved) ATP in ocean environments. The IISA-ATP utilizes a PDMS-glass hybrid microfluidic device as its core functional element, which can perform cell lysis and total ATP quantification by a luciferin-luciferase bioluminescence assay in situ. Transparent heaters and a temperature sensor fabricated on a glass substrate provide temperature control. As a result of the evaluation using the microfluidic device with ATP standard solutions, the bioluminescence intensity was linearly correlated with 2 × 10(-12) to 2 × 10(-8) M of ATP. A detection limit of 1.1 × 10(-11) M was determined using the completed IISA-ATP system, which includes a miniature pumping module and a control module. As a result of the evaluation using the environmental seawater sample collected from Tokyo Bay, Japan, 2.7 × 10(-10) M of total ATP was successfully determined in the laboratory by the IISA-ATP. The system was operated at a shallow submarine hot spring area in Okinawa, Japan for an in situ trial. The result shows the system was successfully operated in situ and the total ATP was determined to be 3.4 × 10(-10) M. 相似文献

This paper presents a simple method to change the hydrophilic nature of the glass surface in a poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-glass hybrid microfluidic device to hydrophobic by an extra-heating step during the fabrication process. Glass substrates bonded to a native or oxygen plasma-treated PDMS chip having microchambers (12.5 mm diameter, 110 μm height) were heated at 200°C for 3 h, and then the hydrophobicity of the glass surfaces on the substrate was evaluated by measuring the contact angle of water. By the extra-heating process, the glass surfaces became hydrophobic, and its contact angle was around 109°, which is nearly the same as native PDMS surfaces. To demonstrate the usefulness of this surface modification method, a PDMS-glass hybrid microfluidic device equipped with microcapillary vent structures for pneumatic manipulation of droplets was fabricated. The feasibility of the microcapillary vent structures on the device with the hydrophobic glass surfaces are confirmed in practical use through leakage tests of the vent structures and liquid handling for the electrophoretic separation of DNA molecules. 相似文献

A new imaging method is proposed for ultrathin films with a thickness of a few nanometers, based on the anomalous reflection (AR) of gold. In the AR effect, the reflectivity fairly decreases for blue or purple light (380 nm < λ < 480 nm) with the existence of a transparent dielectric layer at a gold surface. Thus, a thin gold film can be used as an imaging platform. Clear AR images are obtained for a microarray of protein (avidin) spots of diameter 120 μm with gaps of size 50 μm between the spots (36 spots/mm2). The resolution of the AR imaging is governed solely by the illumination spot size. AR imaging is a promising technique for high throughput analysis of biomolecular detection in a microarray format. 相似文献
