ITO导电玻璃和PDMS微芯片毛细管电泳电化学发光检测的研究

微全分析系统是目前很前沿的研究领域，尽管现在还没有真正意义的微全分析系统出现，但它代表了分析科学的发展趋势。本文主要研究了ITO导电玻璃和PDMS微芯片毛细管电泳和电化学发光检测方法。微芯片毛细管电泳对与其联用的检测器有相当高的要求，一些传统的检测方法很难适应于微芯片毛细管电泳。电化学发光检测是一种新兴的检测技术，在化学、生物、医学诊断以及免疫分析中展现出良好的应用前景。如何实现和完善微芯片毛细管电泳与电化学发光检测联用技术是本论文的重点。我们采用聚二甲基硅氧烷（poly（dimethylsiloxone），简称PDMS）和玻璃作为芯片材料，以锢锡氧化物（indium桩n oXide，简称工T0）导电玻璃为工作电极设计了一种集成化的微芯片毛细管电泳电化学发光检测器。其中，芯片的底片由工TO导电玻璃经光刻、化学腐蚀等方法处理后得到。ITO是一种透明的导电材料，作为工作电极集成到芯片的底片上，PDMS层与芯片底片采用可逆键合的方式键合，大大简化了操作并提高了电化学发光信号的采集效率。我们采用脯氨酸作为被测物对检测器进行了表征。在实验过程中，微芯片毛细管电泳及工T0工作电极都表现出良好的稳定性。我们还提出了电化学和电化学发光同时检测技术，应用于微芯片毛细管电泳和常规毛细管电泳。在这种电化学和电化学发光双检测模式中，三联吡陡钉（Ru（bpy）32+既作为电化学发光检测所需的发光试剂与被分析物反应生成激发态的Ru（bpy）32+＊产生电化学发光信号，又在电极表面平行催化电化学反应得到增强的电流响应，提高电化学检测的灵敏度。电化学信号与电化学发光信号同时产生并分别记录，从而实现了电化学和电化学发光同时检测。我们将这种检测技术与芯片或常规毛细管电泳结合，以多巴胺及三种药物分子山蓖若碱、氧氟沙星和利多卡因作为被测物对其进行了表征。这种同时检测方法与其它多检测模式相比更为简单、方便，比单一的电化学或电化学发光检测可以获得更多的被分析物信息，扩大单一检测方式的应用范围。

Fabrication of Novel Superhydrophobic Surfaces and Water Droplet Bouncing Behavior - Part 1: Stable ZnO-PDMS Superhydrophobic Surface with Low Hysteresis Constructed Using ZnO Nanoparticles

A superhydrophobic surface has many advantages in micro/nanomechanical applications, such as low adhesion, low friction and high restitution coefficient, etc. In this paper, we introduce a novel and simple route to fabricate superhydrophobic surfaces using ZnO nanocrystals. First, tetrapod-like ZnO nanocrystals were prepared via a one-step, direct chemical vapor deposition (CVD) approach. The nanostructured ZnO material was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the surface functionalized by aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APS) was found to be hydrophobic. Then the superhydrophobic surface was constructed by depositing uniformly ZnO hydrophobic nanoparticles (HNPs) on the Poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) film substrate. Water wettability study revealed a contact angle of 155.4 +/- 2 degrees for the superhydrophobic surface while about 110 degrees for pure smooth PDMS films. The hysteresis was quite low, only 3.1 +/- 0.3 degrees. Microscopic observations showed that the surface was covered by micro- and nano-scale ZnO particles. Compared to other approaches, this method is rather convenient and can be used to obtain a large area superhydrophobic surface. The high contact angle and low hysteresis could be attributed to the micro/nano structures of ZnO material; besides, the superhydrophobic property of the as-constructed ZnO-PDMS surface could be maintained for at least 6 months.

A stable PEO-tethered PDMS surface having controllable wetting property by a swelling-deswelling process

A PEO-tethered layer on a PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) cross-linked network has been prepared by a swelling-deswelling process. During swelling, the PDMS block of a PDMS-b-PEO diblock copolymer penetrates into the PDMS substrate and interacts with PDMS chains because of the van der Waals force and hydrophobic interaction between them. Upon deswelling, the PDMS block is trapped in the PDMS matrix while the PEO, as a hydrophilic block, is tethered to the surface. The PEO-tethered layer showed stability when treated in water for 16 h. The surface fraction of PEO and the wetting property of the PEO-tethered PDMS surface can be controlled by the cross linking density of the PDMS matrix. A patterned PEO-tethered layer on a PDMS network was also created by microcontact printing and water condensation figures (CFs) were used to study the patterned surface with different wetting properties.

不同分子量PDMS与铕形成配合物的光谱特性研究

Eu3+与不同分子量的聚二甲基硅氧烷(PDMS)形成的配合物PDMS-Eu(Ⅲ)受紫外光激发后,激发的PDMS将吸收的能量传递给Eu(Ⅲ),使Eu(Ⅲ)受到激发,因而使其在可见光区的发射荧光峰增强.由于PDMS-Eu(Ⅲ)中不同分子量的PDMS的构象不同,受光激发后的能量也不同,因此,含不同分子量PDMS配体的PDMS-Eu(Ⅲ)从PDMS到Eu(Ⅲ)的能量传递效率也不同,使Eu(Ⅲ)在可见光区的发射荧光峰峰强也不同.当PDMS的分子量为30 000时,PDMS-Eu(Ⅲ)的能量传递效率最高,可达48.2%,因而Eu(Ⅲ)在可见光区的发射荧光峰峰强最强.

Morphology and properties of [PPO-PDMS-PHS](n) segmented ternary copolymers

The morphology and properties of [ PPO-PDMS-PHS](n) segmented ternary copolymers were investigated by DMA, TEM and SAXS techniques. It is shown that the continuous phase of [PPO-PDMS-PHS](n) is the compatible phase composed of PDMS, PPO and PHS segments, and that there exist two dispersed phases, i, e. the PDMS phase and a mixed phase of half hard ( PHS) and hard ( PPO) segments. The tan delta vs. T curve of the segmented ternary copolymer with 66.7% (W/W) PDMS shows a rather high plateau in the temperature range from -120 degrees C to 200 degrees C, which indicates that the copolymer has the characteristics of microphase separation as well as compatibility of block copolymers, respectively. Meanwhile, it has good tensile properties, which means that [PPO-PDMS-PHS](n) has overcome the weakness of low strength of block or segmented copolymers containing PDMS.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CRYSTALLIZATION OF THE PDMS BLOCK AND MORPHOLOGY OF POLY(BUTADIENE-B-DIMETHYLSILOXANE)

Studies using transmission electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray diffraction showed correlations between the crystallization behavior of the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) block and the morphology of the block copolymer poly (butadiene-b-dimethylsiloxane) (PB-PDMS). When the PDMS component existed as spheres dispersed in a PB matrix, the crystallization rate of the PDMS block was lower than when the PDMS phase existed in rod or cylinder form.

Non-linear mechanical behavior of the elastomer polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) used in the manufacture of microfluidic devices

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is the elastomer of choice to create a variety of microfluidic devices by soft lithography techniques (eg., [1], [2], [3], [4]). Accurate and reliable design, manufacture, and operation of microfluidic devices made from PDMS, require a detailed characterization of the deformation and failure behavior of the material. This paper discusses progress in a recently-initiated research project towards this goal. We have conducted large-deformation tension and compression experiments on traditional macroscale specimens, as well as microscale tension experiments on thin-film (≈ 50µm thickness) specimens of PDMS with varying ratios of monomer:curing agent (5:1, 10:1, 20:1). We find that the stress-stretch response of these materials shows significant variability, even for nominally identically prepared specimens. A non-linear, large-deformation rubber-elasticity model [5], [6] is applied to represent the behavior of PDMS. The constitutive model has been implemented in a finite-element program [7] to aid the design of microfluidic devices made from this material. As a first attempt towards the goal of estimating the non-linear material parameters for PDMS from indentation experiments, we have conducted micro-indentation experiments using a spherical indenter-tip, and carried out corresponding numerical simulations to verify how well the numerically-predicted P(load-h(depth of indentation) curves compare with the corresponding experimental measurements. The results are encouraging, and show the possibility of estimating the material parameters for PDMS from relatively simple micro-indentation experiments, and corresponding numerical simulations.

Concurrent recordings of bladder afferents from multiple nerves using a microfabricated PDMS microchannel electrode array

In this paper we present a compliant neural interface designed to record bladder afferent activity. We developed the implant's microfabrication process using multiple layers of silicone rubber and thin metal so that a gold microelectrode array is embedded within four parallel polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microchannels (5 mm long, 100 μm wide, 100 μm deep). Electrode impedance at 1 kHz was optimized using a reactive ion etching (RIE) step, which increased the porosity of the electrode surface. The electrodes did not deteriorate after a 3 month immersion in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at 37 °C. Due to the unique microscopic topography of the metal film on PDMS, the electrodes are extremely compliant and can withstand handling during implantation (twisting and bending) without electrical failure. The device was transplanted acutely to anaesthetized rats, and strands of the dorsal branch of roots L6 and S1 were surgically teased and inserted in three microchannels under saline immersion to allow for simultaneous in vivo recordings in an acute setting. We utilized a tripole electrode configuration to maintain background noise low and improve the signal to noise ratio. The device could distinguish two types of afferent nerve activity related to increasing bladder filling and contraction. To our knowledge, this is the first report of multichannel recordings of bladder afferent activity.
