GENE AMPLIFICATION CHIP, APPARATUS FOR GENE AMPLIFICATION, AND APPARATUS FOR BIO-PARTICLE ANALYSIS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17954559 titled 'GENE AMPLIFICATION CHIP, APPARATUS FOR GENE AMPLIFICATION, AND APPARATUS FOR BIO-PARTICLE ANALYSIS
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application describes a gene amplification chip that is used for amplifying DNA samples. - The chip consists of multiple layers, including a cover layer, a chamber layer, and a bottom layer. - The cover layer has a solution inlet through which a sample solution can be injected into the chip. - The chamber layer is located on one surface of the cover layer and contains a chamber where the sample solution is received. - The sample solution undergoes an amplification reaction within the chamber, resulting in an increased amount of DNA. - The bottom layer is located on the other surface of the chamber layer and provides structural support to the chip. - A photothermal film is attached to the outer surface of the bottom layer. - The photothermal film has the ability to convert light into heat. - The heat generated by the photothermal film is used to warm up the sample solution within the chamber. - The heating of the sample solution helps to facilitate the amplification reaction and improve its efficiency.
Original Abstract Submitted
A gene amplification chip may include: a cover layer having a solution inlet through which a sample solution to be injected; a chamber layer disposed on one surface of the cover layer, and having a chamber to receive the sample solution when the sample solution is injected through the solution inlet such that an amplification reaction of the sample solution occurs in the chamber; a bottom layer disposed on another surface of the chamber layer; and a photothermal film attached to an outer surface of the bottom layer, and configured to convert light into heat to heat the sample solution received in the chamber.
