Now briefly introduce the method that micro channel electrode of the present invention and microfluidic analysis chip thereof make and adopt above-mentioned when not planting conducting liquid they performance relatively:
One, method for making.
1. two electrode raceway grooves of the other parallel design of the fluid channel of 5~2000 microns width, the electrode channel structure remains between electrode raceway groove and the fluid channel about 5~200 microns to adapt to the machining precision of photoresist or material with to design the electrode plane structure in advance identical.
2. with the mask lamina membranacea of design,, utilize common micro-processing technology or soft lithography to make micro flow chip, punching, just become the micro-fluidic chip that has the electrode raceway groove behind the bonding by photoetching technique.
3. feed conductive liquid in the electrode raceway groove, make to be full of conductive liquid in the raceway groove as far as possible, plug conductive hole needle at the one end, electrode is made and has just been finished.
Two, the performance of all kinds of conducting liquids relatively.
The conducting liquid that this electrode is suitable for can have following a few class, now following introduction is done in its some aspect:
1, full of liquid electrolyte in raceway groove, as: PBS solution, copper-bath.This method is convenient feasible, and effect is obvious, but particularly photoetching and bonding techniques are had relatively high expectations to chip manufacture.But the time that discharges and recharges is longer, and the response time is slow.
2, import little raceway groove with metal, as: liquid mercury, silver slurry.Can increase substantially every performance of electrode on this method, the while can make electrode forever solidify or be enclosed in the raceway groove.But there is the problem of the curing of electrode later stage, sealing raceway groove, increases the electrode chip making step.
3, in the PDMS prepolymer, mix conductive materials such as carbon dust, make it conduction, be filled in little raceway groove.This method can be made various modules in advance as a direction that improves chip integration, also can import little raceway groove as conductive liquid and solidify.
Three, embodiment

(1), produces the micro-fluidic chip that has raceway groove shown in the accompanying drawing according to the method for making in the summary of the invention.
(2) silver slurry acetone diluted, feed the electrode material inlet, plug the metal vent needle, put into drying oven again, just can use at any time later in the electrode material porch.
(3) take out chip, at the oil phase inlet, sodium alginate inlet and dyeing oil phase inlet are plugged the syringe that has flexible pipe, and syringe is placed on the syringe pump, take the feed liquor mode that pushes away, adjust each flow parameters, start each pump work successively.
(4) wait for that stream focusing raceway groove place water-soluble drop periodically occurs and is dispersed in the oil-continuous phase, can be according to the situation of in inverted microscope, seeing, the parameter of each pump of appropriate change.
(5) form oil phase in the straight flute road in wait stream focusing raceway groove downstream and form the laminar flow of dividing raceway groove equally, can suitably adjust the flow velocity of the oil phase that dyes according to the situation of laminar flow with the oil phase that dyes.
(6) making alive on electrode, top electrode adds malleation, and following electrode adds negative pressure, and this ag paste electrode adds the purpose that 150V just can reach separation in this raceway groove, be 500 μ m between the electrode raceway groove, and electric field intensity reaches 3KV/cm.
3. experiment effect analysis.
(1) shown in accompanying drawing 1-5, select 1,2,3,4 four observation station, the every choosing carried out 4 times behind one group of voltage and taken pictures, and obtains laminar flow respectively, and deflection separates the effect of drawing.
(2) this experiment will be got well much with the more common coated electrode of high-aspect-ratio electrode separation effect, and performance is far superior to the electrode that plated film forms.
(3) existing phenomenon at 1,2,3,4 four observation station has briefly introduced stream and has focused on the movement locus of formation aqueous solution droplet in raceway groove.Synoptic diagram such as accompanying drawing 2-5 simulate laminar flow respectively, deflection, and the diagram of separating and drawing is separated fully, is quick on the draw, and is simple to operate, repeatable strong.
(4) owing to do not allow electric charge on the droplet band in the experiment specially, but electrically charged with himself institute, because self is electrically charged generally less, the 3 D stereo field intensity that more can embody this electrode is higher, and homogeneity is better.
