摘要:
A micro-fluid reaction vessel includes an upper plate formed of an elastomer, a lower plate adhered to the upper plate, a micro-chamber and a micro-channel formed on an inner surface of the upper plate facing the lower plate and an inlet hole and an outlet hole formed in the upper plate and through which a fluid flows into or out of, respectively. The micro-channel is constructed to be closed by pressure applied to the upper plate and elastically restored when the pressure is not applied. A micro fluid reaction method uses the micro fluid reaction vessel and a method of manufacturing forms the microfluid reaction vessel.

摘要:
Provided is a microchip unit, including a microchip on which a plurality of micro-channels are formed, a housing disposed below the microchip to fix the microchip; and at least two injecting and sealing elements having through-holes corresponding to inlets of the microchip. The injecting and sealing elements are vertically fixed on the top of the housing and slide in a horizontal direction from a first location to a second location and vice versa. The through-holes are aligned with inlets of the microchip so that a reaction solution can be injected through the through-holes when the injecting and sealing elements are placed at the first location. The inlets of the microchip are sealed by elastic members formed on bottom surfaces of the injecting and sealing elements when the injecting and sealing elements are placed at the second location.
