Abstract
A convenient technique allows detecting fluorescence emitted in the channel with a uniformly high detection sensitivity and a good reproducibility. On the front face side of a plate-like body 11, a groove-shaped introduction channel 12 and separation channel 14 are formed. In this micro-channel chip 10, on the inner faces of a groove constituting the separation channel 14 formed in a surface of the plate-like body 11, there is formed a fine particle layer 20 provided by sintering fine particles having an average particle diameter of 10 to 500 nm mainly composed of zinc oxide (ZnO) or titanium oxide (TiO2).
Claims11
A micro-channel chip, comprising a channel, the channel being provided for introducing a liquid containing a fluorescent dye therein, and having a configuration allowing light emitted by said fluorescent dye to be observed from outside,
- on an inner wall of said channel, there being formed a fine particle layer provided by sintering fine particles having an average particle diameter of 10 to 500 nm and mainly composed of zinc oxide (ZnO) or titanium oxide (TiO2).
