| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, new microchannel fabrication method has beed developed using local heating of hydrogels. The micro-electrodes were fabricated on a glass substrate to generate Joule heat.
The genlatin-agar mixed hydrogel was prepared to locally melt and fabricate microchannels. The hydrogel was placed on the micro-electrodes and locally melted by the generated Joule heat. The channel size is controlled by the heating duration. The fabricated channel can be closed by filling the hydrogel again. Hence, the microfluidic device which has changable channel patterns was achieved by controlling the melting pattern of hydrogels.
