“Biochips” for detecting cells, DNA, and proteins
Usage summary
In addition to the properties of “chemical resistance”, “liquid repellency”, and “low adhesion with biological materials” that are necessary for “biochips”, and since CYTOP™ has characteristics of “low autofluorescence”, and “nearly the same refractive index as water (1.34)”, it is easy to view with a microscope. Furthermore, by making use of the property of “wettability control” which employs the electrowetting phenomenon with the on/off of voltage, it is possible to move, separate and mix microscopic droplets.
