MICROFLUIDIC DEVICE FOR CAPABLE OF SEQUENTIAL OPERATION FROM CELL CULTURE TO LIPID EXTRACTION AND THE METHOD OF EXTRACTING LIPID USING THEREOF

摘要

Disclosed are a microfluidic device enabling cell culture and lipid extraction, and a lipid extraction method using the same. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the microfluidic device of the present invention comprises: a microalgae culturing module having a plurality of separated culturing chambers for culturing the microalgae; and a lipid-dissolved solution filtration module coupled to an upper part of the microalgae culturing module by being stacked thereto, communicatively connected to the culturing chambers, and filtrating a lipid-dissolved solution containing dissolved lipid components derived from fractions of the microalgae pulverized by means of an organic solvent supplied to the culturing chambers.
