In this paper, we report a new method of fabricating a high-throughput protein preconcentrator in poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) microfluidic chip format. We print a submicron thick ion-selective membrane on the glass substrate by using standard patterning techniques. By simply plasma-bonding a PDMS microfluidic device on top of the printed glass substrate, we can integrate the ion-selective membrane into the device and rapidly prototype a PDMS preconcentrator without complicated microfabrication and cumbersome integration processes. The PDMS preconcentrator shows a concentration factor as high as similar to 10(4) in 5 min. This printing method even allows fabricating a parallel array of preconcentrators to increase the concentrated sample volume, which can facilitate an integration of our microfluidic preconcentrator chip as a signal enhancing tool to various detectors such as a mass spectrometer.
