Nanofluidic devices for rapid continuous-flow bioseparation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Compared with conventional gel-based techniques, such as gel electrophoresis, which are routinely used for bioseparation in biology and biomedical laboratories, nanofluidic devices with regular engineered sieving structures offer the potential for faster separation, better resolution, higher throughput, and more convenient sample recovery. Here, we detail the fabrication process of a two-dimensional nanofluidic filter array device and its implementation for rapid continuous-flow separation of biomolecules such as proteins.

Continuous high throughput nanofluidic separation through tangential-flow vertical nanoslit arrays.
Nanofluidic devices exhibit unique, tunable transport properties that may lead to breakthroughs in molecular separations and sensing. However, the throughput of these devices is orders of magnitude too small for the processing of macroscopic samples. Here we overcome this problem by combining two technological innovations. First, nanofluidic channels are made as vertical slits connecting the tw...
متن کاملContinuous isolation of monocytes using a magnetophoretic-based microfluidic Chip.
Monocytes play an important role in the immune system and are responsible for phagocytizing and degrading foreign microorganisms in the body. The isolation of monocytes is important in various immunological applications such as in-vitro culture of dendritic cells. We present a magnetophoretic-based microfluidic chip for rapid isolation of highly purified, untouched monocytes from human blood by...

متن کاملComplete plastic nanofluidic devices for DNA analysis via direct imprinting with polymer stamps.
Development of all polymer-based nanofluidic devices using replication technologies, which is a prerequisite for providing devices for a larger user base, is hampered by undesired substrate deformation associated with the replication of multi-scale structures. Therefore, most nanofluidic devices have been fabricated in glass-like substrates or in a polymer resist layer coated on a substrate. Th...
متن کاملNanofluidic channels of arbitrary shapes fabricated by tip-based nanofabrication.
Nanofluidic channels have promising applications in biomolecule manipulation and sensing. While several different methods of fabrication have been demonstrated for nanofluidic channels, a rapid, low-cost fabrication method that can fabricate arbitrary shapes of nanofluidic channels is still in demand. Here, we report a tip-based nanofabrication (TBN) method for fabricating nanofluidic channels ...
