The present paper reports a fully automated microfluidic system for the DNA amplification process by integrating an electroosmotic pump, an active micromixer and an on-chip temperature control system. In this DNA amplification process, the cell lysis is initially performed in a micro cell lysis reactor. Extracted DNA samples, primers and reagents are then driven electroosmotically into a mixing region where they are mixed by the active micromixer. The homogeneous mixture is then thermally cycled in a micro-PCR (polymerase chain reaction) chamber to perform DNA amplification. Experimental results show that the proposed device can successfully automate the sample pretreatment operation for DNA amplification, thereby delivering significant time and effort savings. The new microfluidic system, which facilitates cell lysis, sample driving/mixing and DNA amplification, could provide a significant contribution to ongoing efforts to miniaturize bio-analysis systems by utilizing a simple fabrication process and cheap materials.
