Abstract
A microfluidic spotting device has a first substrate patterned with an array of spots, a second substrate attached directly or indirectly to the first substrate, and channels formed at least partly in at least one of the first substrate and the second substrate, each channel having an inlet channel and an outlet channel.
Claims31
A microfluidic spotting device, comprising:
- a substrate patterned with an array of spots, the substrate being suitable for use in a surface based analytical method;
- a channeled substrate attached to the substrate;
- and
- a channel network formed at least partially in the channeled substrate, the channel network having more than one distinct channel path, each channel path including an inlet channel and an outlet channel and being uniquely associated with and passing across a spot or group of spots.
