Provided are a nucleic acid purification apparatus including a chamber that includes an inlet and an outlet, at least two electrodes that defines the chamber and form an electric field, a photovoltaic device that applies a bias to the electrodes, a microfluidic apparatus including the same, and a method of purifying a nucleic acid using the nucleic acid purification apparatus. The nucleic acid purification apparatus includes the photovoltaic device and the conductive transparent electrodes, thus operating independently, and a PCR buffer can be used as an eluate for the nucleic acid. As a result, the nucleic acid purification apparatus can be integrated, and by using the apparatus, a fast and simplified purification can be obtained. The microfludic apparatus including the nucleic acid purification apparatus can operate independently, and perform the purification of the nucleic acid and a PCR at the same time. As a result, the microfluidic apparatus can be miniaturized and automated. |
