Abstract :
Poly (dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) had been extensively used as excellent microchip material due to its particular advantages. In this paper, Laser-induced fluorescence detection system for visualizing microchip electrophoresis had been constructed and a series of electrophoresis operation of DNA fragments labeled by SYBR Green I were imaged by charge coupled device (CCD) camera. We investigated the influence of the sieving matrix concentration and the electric field strength on the formation of sample injection plug. PCR markers were well separated in PDMS microchip.
