  • Abstract
    We have developed a portable device for accurate reverse transcription which enable early detection of diseases. This micro device was fabricated by 3D micro stereolithography. The size is only a finger-tip scale, but can perform multiple analysis all at once. This device needs only 1 μl reagent for inspection that is much smaller than that of conventional devices. Basic performance for precise measurement of reverse transcription was verified experimentally.
