MICRO-FLUIDIC CHIP AND REACTION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18027097 titled 'MICRO-FLUIDIC CHIP AND REACTION SYSTEM

The present disclosure introduces a micro-fluidic chip and reaction system designed for micro-reaction chambers.

The micro-fluidic chip consists of a base substrate, a micro-cavity defining layer, a cover plate, and a heating layer.
The micro-cavity defining layer on the base substrate creates multiple micro-reaction chambers.
A heating layer, located between the micro-cavity defining layer and either the base substrate or the cover plate, heats the micro-reaction chambers.
The base substrate or cover plate, away from the heating layer, has a larger second surface area than the first surface area facing the heating layer.

Potential Applications:

This technology can be used in various fields such as medical diagnostics, chemical analysis, and biological research.
It can facilitate rapid and efficient reactions in a controlled environment.

Problems Solved:

Provides a compact and efficient solution for conducting multiple reactions simultaneously.
Enables precise control over reaction conditions in micro-scale environments.

Benefits:

Increases productivity by allowing for parallel processing of reactions.
Reduces the consumption of reagents and samples due to the micro-scale design.
Enhances the accuracy and reproducibility of reactions.

Commercial Applications:

This technology could be valuable in pharmaceutical research, environmental monitoring, and point-of-care diagnostics.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the micro-fluidic chip improve the efficiency of reactions in comparison to traditional methods? 2. What are the potential challenges in scaling up this technology for industrial applications?

Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure provides a micro-fluidic chip and a reaction system. The micro-fluidic chip includes: a base substrate; a micro-cavity defining layer on the base substrate and defining a plurality of micro-reaction chambers; a cover plate on a side of the micro-cavity defining layer away from the base substrate; a heating layer disposed between the micro-cavity defining layer and one of the base substrate and the cover plate, and configured to heat the plurality of micro-reaction chambers. One of the base substrate and the cover plate, which is away from the heating layer, has a first surface and a second surface, the first surface faces the heating layer, the second surface faces away from the heating layer, and a area of the second surface is larger than that of the first surface.
