Abstract
A microfluidic component for a sample separation device includes a layer body with multiple metal layer structures that are connected with each other, and an element made of a material different from the metal layer structures, which includes at least one microfluidic structure and is bonded with the layer body.
Claims17
A microfluidic component for a sample separation device, the microfluidic component comprising:
- a layer body comprising a plurality of metal layer structures connected to each other;
- and
- an element having a material composition different from a material composition of the metal layer structures, wherein the element comprises at least one microfluidic structure and is bonded with the layer body,
- wherein the layer body has a cavity and the element is disposed in the cavity such that the element is embedded in the layer body.
