Abstract

La présente invention porte sur une puce microfluidique produisant une concentration de solution, permettant d'obtenir un gradient de concentration particulier selon les besoins, ce qui satisfait ainsi à diverses exigences de gradient de concentration et permet d'effectuer non seulement les cultures en suspension de microorganismes ou de cellules mais également la détection de compositions particulières dans des solutions de culture. La puce microfluidique selon la présente invention réalise une séparation entre des tuyaux de circulation de liquide, a une plus faible exigence de précision d'assemblage de diverses couches et permet d'agencer les tuyaux de circulation de liquide de façon beaucoup plus proche. La concentration en gaz dans la puce microfluidique de la présente invention est produite en fonction de différentes quantités d'un gaz diffusant dans la solution à travers une membrane perméable aux gaz en de multiples points de passage ou dans différentes zones de passage ; la concentration du gaz dissous repose principalement sur le nombre de points de passage ou la taille de la zone de passage ; la présente invention évite l'utilisation d'une structure de mélange et de distribution de gaz en forme de pyramide, ce qui économise la surface de la puce et améliore l'intégration d'unités de culture dans la puce.
