APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR AMPLIFYING A POLYNUCLEOTIDE

摘要

The present invention provides an apparatus for amplifying a polynucleotide, comprising a substrate, a microflow channel system disposed in the substrate and comprising a sample inlet port, a sample flow channel extending from the sample inlet port, and a polynucleotide polymerization reaction chamber in fluid communication with the sample flow channel, a first insulation groove formed around the reaction chamber, and a means for regulating a temperature of the reaction chamber. Accordingly, a multiple chamber device for amplifying a polynucleotide, comprising multiple polymerization reaction chambers formed in a substrate can be manufactured.
