Description

A kind of preparation method of electric wetting state electrode
Technical field
The present invention relates to the analytical test field, particularly a kind of preparation method of the electric wetting electrode for portable microflow analysis device.
Background technology
Based on the bioanalysis device of microfluid, have the high advantage of high specificity and susceptibility, thereby more welcomed by the people.At present, the microfluid that is used for clinical disease diagnosis exists complex structure, the shortcoming such as expensive, should not move, thereby be not suitable for some places that need to detect such as farm on the spot and use.The special device of the mobile needs of liquid drives in the microfluid, normally adopts exogenous pump (such as micro-injection pump, peristaltic pump and or air driven pump) to provide power for it.Owing to used pump, the volume of checkout equipment increases greatly.Therefore, the scientific research personnel is being engaged in design and the development of pump-free type microfluid always.
Adopting driven by electroosmosis is a method of dealing with problems.Yet the voltage that electroosmotic flow requires is very high, and therefore, this method is in portable, the cheaply mobile seldom employing that detects in establishing.
Use capillary flow to have lot of advantages in microfluid, wherein the most outstanding is that liquid can flow in without the situation of pump, is very beneficial for simplification and the microminiaturization of system.This also is that direction finding flow analysis method can be widely used in the major reason that detects, diagnose.Capillary fluid flows in microfluidic device and is subjected to several factor affecting, comprises design, liquid viscosity and the solid-liquid contact angle of pipeline.Usually the liquid that uses in the analytic process is hydrophilic, and the polymer material that is used for making microfluidic device is hydrophobicity, and how to reduce both contact angles be one of study hotspot of this area to the application surface modification technique.It is the most frequently used hydrophilic method of acquisition that the surface is coated with, and for example, coats cellulose acetate in polyvinyl chloride surface, can increase Capillary Flow.
In addition, strengthen the subregional hydrophobicity of channel middle, flowing of the liquid that can slow down reaches to increase and hatches (such as the combination of antigen and the antibody) time.At present, increase the channel surface hydrophobicity and be used to the interior sample mix of microfluidic channel.
Medium powers on, and wetting (EWOD) is a kind of special phenomenon, and the polarity of hydrophobic medium can be changed when making alive.Teflon is a kind of hydrophobic medium, when powering up, can change polarity, is converted into water wettability, shows as contact angle and diminishes.Liquid except the property effect that is subjected to self, also is subjected to the impact of the contact angle of inner surface of pipeline in flow in capillary tube.So ducted hydrophobicity teflon door can be blocked flowing of capillary liquid in pipe.If teflon is converted into water wettability, capillary liquid recovers to flow.Therefore, in the situation that does not need the movability parts, this electric wetting state teflon can be made the valve of automatically controlled property.There is the scholar to studies show that, utilizes electric wetting phenomena can be made into valve, be used for the liquid that the siphon of control capillary drives.In the test, when elasticity dimethyl silicone polymer on glass was induced into water wettability, the capillary liquid in pipe could flow.Yet this finishing is not suitable for being prepared into commercial material.
Accordingly, the present invention discloses the method for the wet valve of a kind of electricity and preparation.Compare with elasticity poly dimethyl silica, this method have preparation easily, the characteristics of low-cost, high benefit, can keep water wettability for a long time.
Summary of the invention
The technical matters that solves: the objective of the invention is to prepare the electric wetting state electrode that is suitable for using on the microfluidic device, behind the on-load voltage, the polarity of electrode transfers to hydrophilicly by hydrophobic, reaches flowing and blocking-up of liquid in the control microfluid.
Technical scheme: a kind of preparation method of electric wetting state electrode, step is: 1). loads the conductive silver ink, prints silver electrode with printer at polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film; 2). printed rear 10~90 minutes, with the printed electrode sintering, 120~200 ℃ of temperature, time 3min~30min; 3). process with UV/ozone: 20~40mW/cm 2, time 3~10min, then distilled water cleans, nitrogen drying; 4). step 3 the electrode obtained is placed 1~3mM 1H, 1H, 2H, the ethanolic solution of 2H-perfluor decyl mercaptan, vibration, 1.5~5 hours, take out, ethanol cleans, and gets electric wetting state electrode behind the nitrogen drying.
Beneficial effect: existing microfluidic device adopts the mechanicalness valve usually, and volume is larger, carries difficulty, is not easy to detect on the spot.The electric wetting electrode of the present invention's preparation has characteristics easy to make, that cost is low, the maintenance water wettability time is long, can be used for making the electric control valve in the microfluidic device, for the positive role of having promoted the use of of portable microfluid analysis method.
