A gene analysis apparatus includes a sample preparation chip in which a polymerase chain reaction (“PCR”) sample is prepared, a PCR chip in which a PCR is performed on the PCR sample, and a package layer on which the sample preparation chip and the PCR chip are mounted. The package layer includes a channel through which a material flows from the sample preparation chip to the PCR chip. The sample preparation chip and the PCR chip are on a same side or on opposing sides of the package layer.

Disclosed herein are a method of fabricating a microfluidic device, and a microfluidic device fabricated by the method. The method includes coating an adhesive material on a first substrate having a fluid port to form an adhesive layer thereon, arranging a second substrate having a microstructure formed therein with the surface of the first substrate on which the adhesive layer is formed, such that the fluid port and the microstructure correspond to each other, and heating the substrates at about 50 to about 180 degrees Celsius to bind the first substrate to the second substrate.

Provided is a method of separating cells using a hydrophobic solid support. The method comprises contacting a solution containing cells with a hydrophobic solid support having a water contact angle between 70 and 90 degrees. By allowing cells to be adsorbed to the hydrophobic solid substrate, the cells can be separated. Thus, the cell separation efficiency can be rapidly and simply increased.
