Abstract:A polymer-based, multiplex single molecule detection module (SMD) was developed with a fluidic substrate and a cover plate. The fluidic substrate was fabricated using a single-step, double-sided hot embossing in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) with sampling zone microchannels on the bottom side and microlenses on the top. Shallow sampling zone microchannels (5 μm deep and 100 μm wide) were made to improve sampling efficiency and microlenses were adopted to collect the fluorescent radiation from the sampling z… Show more
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.
