| 摘要 |
The present invention provides a method for modification of microchannels of a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microchip, which includes the steps of: a) mixing an alkoxysilane precursor, an alkyl alkoxysilane precursor, and a solvent to prepare a sol-gel solution; b) oxidizing microchannels of the PDMS microchip; and c) coating the oxidized microchannels with the sol-gel solution prepared in step a). The PDMS microchip modified according to the method of the present invention shows higher hydrophilicity than an unmodified PDMS microchip. And, when the modified PDMS channels are filled with an organic solvent, channel swelling can be reduced, and thus various organic solvents can be used for the modified PDMS microchip compared to an unmodified PDMS microchip. Further, it can be widely applied for various fields because absorptivity of non-polar substances can be reduced. |
