Abstract

See full text

A microfluidic device includes a support body having a first surface and a second surface opposite to one another. The first surface is hydrophilic. A surface modification layer extends over the first surface of the support body. At least one opening is formed to extend through the surface modification layer and expose a portion of the first surface. The surface modification layer is hydrophobic. In particular, the surface modification layer is made of a photodefinible material chosen from among: an epoxy resin, a polyamide, and a photocurable siloxane-based polymer. The openings are functionalized using probe molecules designed to bind with specific target molecules to be detected.
