Compared to existing systems, this approach offers, in addition to a greater flexibility in terms of cycling programme, an incomparable ease of parallelisation. We report in this paper the first results obtained when using a sample-shunting approach to achieve on-chip PCR. An unoptimised chip displays an efficiency of 25% and is six times faster than a conventional thermo-cycler. To the extent of our knowledge no comparable results have been previously published. | | ISBN: | 0-9728422-7-6 |
