Abstract:The choice of substrate material in a chip that combines ultrasound with microfluidics for handling biological and synthetic microparticles can have a profound effect on the performance of the device. This is due to the high surface-to-volume ratio that exists within such small structures and acquires particular relevance in polymer-based resonators with 3D standing waves. This paper presents three chips developed to perform particle flow-through separation by ultrasound based on a polymeric SU-8 layer containing channelization over three different substrates: Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA); Pyrex; and a cracked PMMA composite-like structure. Through direct observations of polystyrene microbeads inside the channel, the three checked chips exhibit their potential as disposable continuous concentration devices with different spatial pressure patterns at frequencies of resonance close to 1 Mhz. Chips with Pyrex and cracked PMMA substrates show restrictions on the number of pressure nodes established in the channel associated with the inhibition of 3D modes in the solid structure. The glass-substrate chip presents some advantages associated with lower energy requirements to collect particles. According to the OPEN ACCESSMicromachines 2015, 6 575 results, the use of polymer-based chips with rigid substrates can be advantageous for applications that require short treatment times (clinical tests handling human samples) and low-cost fabrication.

“…Chen et al and Sethu et al developed crossflow filtration systems with one main channel in the centre and two side channels in a parallel orientation. Micropillar [17] and microweir [18] arrays are located at the interfaces between the main and lateral channels, enabling cross flows. With the optimized flow dynamics, WBC-enriched and depleted blood fractions can be harvested from the outlets of main channel and lateral channels, respectively (Figure 1iii).…”

In this paper, a novel oscillating flow polymerase chain reaction ͑PCR͒ device was designed and fabricated to amplify SPPS150 and salmonella typhi. In this new design, the samples are shuttled ͑oscillating flow͒ inside a microfluidic chip to three different temperature zones required for DNA amplification. The amplification cycle time has markedly been reduced as the reagent volume used was only about 25% of that used in conventional PCRs. Bubble formation and adsorption issues commonly associated to chip based PCR were also eliminated. Based on the performance evaluated, it is demonstrated that this oscillating flow PCR has the advantages of both the stationary chamber and continuous flow PCR devices.
