Title:
INTEGRATION OF BIOCHEMICAL PROTOCOLS IN A CONTINUOUS FLOW MICROFLUIDIC DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001007159
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Provided is a microfluidic device comprising a microfluidic substrate comprising at least one pathway for sample flow; and at least one thermal transfer member which is capable of cycling between at least two temperatures. The thermal transfer member is adapted to heat at least a portion of the sample pathway while a sample is flowing along said at least a portion of said sample pathway. Provided also are methods of carrying out biochemical protocols using such a device.
