Incorporation of spiral continuous flow (CF) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) devices into a 96-well titer plate format will enable highly parallel analyses of many nucleic acids under steady-state temperature control for the realization of a high throughput CFPCR multi-reactor platform. Prior to realization of the full platform, verifying the feasibility of small footprint CFPCR devices, each device confined to a footprint of 8x8 mm 2 , throughout the manufacturing and amplification processes was essential. Small footprint, CFPCR devices in a CFPCR multi-reactor module were designed and double-side hot embossed on one side of a substrate and structures for thermal isolation on the other to improve thermal management. Successful amplification of 99 bp target DNA fragments from λ-DNA template was demonstrated in the small footprint, 20-and 25-turn CFPCR devices.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
