Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of this adhesive-based capillary-microfluidic chip interface is that the adhesive easily penetrates into the microfluidic chip through the gap between the capillary and the rubber stopper or the rubber stopper and the microfluidic chip, causing the microchannel to be blocked.

Abstract

The invention discloses an integrated microfluidic chip interface, which belongs to the field of microfluidic chips. The interface comprises a horizontal substrate 1 and a plurality of lug bosses 2, wherein the horizontal substrate 1 is arranged above the microfluidic chip 4 in a sealing connection way; the plurality of lug bosses 2 are positioned on the horizontal substrate 1; and connecting pipelines 3 are arranged in the lug bosses 2, and communicate microchannels on the microfluidic chip 4 with the outside. In addition, the invention also discloses a method for manufacturing the interfacebased on a mould and an interface using method. The integrated microfluidic chip interface provided by the invention can realize connection between an external microscopic system and a microfluidic chip system without using an adhesive, achieves a good sealing effect and does not cause the blockage of the microchannels. In the method for manufacturing the interface, the batch machining of the integrated microfluidic chip interfaces can be realized by the interface mould.
