We used the composite of a PDMS and an expancel^R as a material, and fabricated the sample divider structure by applying the mold process. We investigated the PDMS and the expancel mixture fraction dependency, and effect of the heating time, on the channel closing performance. The flow channels were successfully closed when the volume ratio between the expancel and PDMS solution was 1:2 and the heating time was 15 minutes. From these results, we concluded that the proposed device is useful as the sample divider, if we optimally designed.}, pages = {618--621}, title = {Micromachined sample divider for analyzing biochemical reaction based on single molecules}, year = {2008} }
