Abstract

A device and method for printing biomolecules on a substrate uses an electric charge concentration effect. The device overcomes limitations of the material and surface characteristics of a substrate, enables accurate dropping of a biomolecular droplet onto a target surface of the substrate, prevents electric discharge, and thus allows the manufacturing of a high density biochip by depositing numerous biomolecular droplets, which are small in size and volume, onto a substrate. The device includes: a needle-shaped electric field forming electrode; a substrate which is grounded and disposed below the electric field forming electrode, the substrate including a target surface; and an open circuit type voltage applying unit which supplies first electric charges to the electric field forming electrode to drop the biomolecular droplet onto the target surface of the substrate.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device for printing biomolecular droplets on a substrate and a device for printing ink on a substrate or printing paper by using the electric charge concentration effect, and more particularly relates to a device for using the electric charge concentration effect to print biomolecules A device for printing biomolecular droplets of biomolecular materials such as nucleic acids (e.g., probes DNA, RNA, PNA and LNA), proteins (eg, antigens and antibodies), oligopeptides, eukaryotic cells (eg, human cells, animal cells, and plant cells), viruses, and bacteria, as well as a method that utilizes the charge concentration effect by dropping the ink A device that prints the contents of computer document files or picture files on printing paper, thereby printing ink on printing paper. Background technique [0002] As a development result of an epoch-making human genome project, human beings need methods for quickly providing a l...
