Abstract

The invention discloses a microfluidic gas damper and an adjusting method. The microfluidic gas damper comprises an upper substrate, a horizontal thin film, a middle substrate and a lower substrate, wherein the upper substrate comprises a gas inlet flow channel, an upper control flow channel and a gas outlet flow channel; the middle substrate comprises a straight-through flow channel and a vertical thin film; and the lower substrate comprises a lower control flow channel. The microfluidic gas damper utilizes elastic deformation generated by compression of gas on the horizontal thin film and the vertical thin film to absorb gas pressure impact and intercept gas flow in the straight-through flow channel, thereby reducing fluctuation of gas pressure in a microfluidic system and achieving the purpose of stabilizing system operating pressure. The microfluidic gas damper provided by the invention does not need external equipment control, can self-stabilize fluctuant gas pressure, has the advantages of small volume, low cost, easy integration, etc., and has extensive application values in places needing supplying constant operating pressure and fluid flow in the field of microfluidics.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a microfluidic gas damper, which belongs to the fields of biomedicine, microfluidic chip technology and the like. Background technique [0002] As an effective means of manipulating microfluidics and biological particles, microfluidic technology has been widely used in the fields of biochemical analysis, biomedicine and diagnosis. In most microfluidic applications, stable working pressure is very important, which directly affects the functional performance of microfluidic chips in practical applications. For example, when using microfluidic inertial sorting technology to achieve precise cell sorting and analysis, it is necessary to provide very precise sample flow to enable efficient focusing and separation of biological cells under the action of Dean flow, while precise sample flow and stable The driving pressure is directly related. Therefore, how to achieve stable working pressure and precise sample flow control in the mic...
