non-specific adsorption |
| Remarks： |
The use of a confining sheath fluid within a microfluidic channel in order prevent non-specific adsorption of analytes to the walls of microchannels is demonstrated.
A sheath-flow channel fabricated using laser cutting of Mylar films is developed. Numerical simulations of convective and diffusive mass transport within the channel are presented. The device is characterized experimentally using epifluorescence microscopy. It is demonstrated that the device is capable of preventing the adsorption of Rhodamine B to the walls of the channel for a period that would allow for adsorption-free T-sensor measurements to be made within the core of the flow channel. Generalized scaling rules based on the diffusion coefficient, sheath thickness and affinity of the potential adsorbant for the surface material are discussed. The controlled adsorption of the protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) to a gold surface is also demonstrated using SPR microscopy. |
