摘要:
Provided are a microfluidic device and a microfluidic analysis equipment. The microfluidic device includes guides disposed along both edges, a lower plate including a flow path defined between the guides, and a movable upper plate moved along the guides on the lower plate and having a length less than that the flow path. A fluid flow can be simply accurately controlled by adjusting a position of the movable upper plate. As a result, the fluid can sufficiently react in the detection part and the reaction part. Therefore, effective reaction and detection can be realized using only a small amount of fluid, thereby improving sensitivity. In addition, due to the improved sensitivity, a washing process for removing materials that are not consumed in the reaction can be omitted. Also, the movable upper plate can be manually moved using a user's finger.

A method of manufacturing an ultrasonic welding-based microfluidic device, the method including: forming a bottom board having two welding stoppers formed right and left and having a certain height and a certain interval; forming a top board having two energy directors formed with an interval greater than the interval between the two welding stoppers; putting the top board on the bottom board to locate the energy directors at the outside of welding stoppers, respectively; and welding the top board to the bottom board by using ultrasonic welding, wherein a channel is formed between the two welding stoppers without additional energy directors. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent a phenomenon that a fluid irregularly flows due to an uneven surface formed on a side of the channel while the energy directors are melted.

Provided is a method of manufacturing a hollow microneedle structure. The method includes forming an injection mold having a through hole, filling the injection mold with a photoresist formed of a viscous material, and extruding the photoresist from the injection mold through the through hole, solidifying the extruded photoresist to form a needle-type photoresist structure, forming a seed layer on the surface of the photoresist structure, forming a metal plated layer on the seed layer, inclining an end tip of the photoresist structure having the metal plated layer, and removing the photoresist from the metal plated layer to form a hollow. Thus, the hollow microneedle structure can be manufactured to have such diameter, length, hardness, and inclination angle as to minimize pain. The hollow microneedle structure can be combined with an apparatus for detecting a biomaterial or injecting cosmetic substances or medicines, and variously applied.

Provided are a plastic microfluid control device having a multi-step microchannel and a method of manufacturing the same. The device includes a lower substrate, and a fluid channel substrate contacting the lower substrate and having a multi-step microchannel having at least two depths in a side coupling to the lower substrate. Thus, the device can precisely control the fluid flow by controlling capillary force in a depth direction of the channel by controlling the fluid using the multi-step microchannel having various channel depths. A multi-step micropattern is formed by repeating photolithography and transferred, thereby easily forming the multi-step microchannel having an even surface and a precisely controlled height.
