Research Abstract |
Future goal of this project was to develop high-throughput single molecule system utilizing technical aspects of both bioMEMS and single molecule manipulation. To achieve this goal, we have developed a silicon-based microdevice consists of two microchannels and multiple nanochannels. We also confirmed that a single DNA molecule can be inserted and manipulated in a nanochannel.
