Abstract

In this paper, we describe a simple method for fabrication of high quality poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)/glass microchip by twofold replica molding of PDMS. This technique first served to transfer the negative microchannels from the glass template to the PDMS substrate as a master, and then this PDMS master with positive microchannels was used to replicate the PDMS replica with negative microchannels. Finally, the PDMS replica was bound to a glass sheet by UV radiation. The fabricated microchips were successfully applied for the detection of C677T mutation from the human methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene.
