Popis: A micro flow cell for sandwich immunoassay using Teflon (Asahi Glass Co.: CYTOP™) check valves for sample and reagent inlets is designed and fabricated. The check valves are used not only to prevent reverse flow of injected solutions but also to realize sequential injection of the sample and reagent by simple applied pressure control. The valve structure is designed to control the width and thickness of the sample. We examined a fluorescent sandwich immunoassay for human AFP (α-fetoprotein) as a preliminary experiment and fast immunoassay within 30 minutes compared to the conventional one was realized in the micro flow cell.
