Application of Microfluidic Chip Technology in Microbial Detection
Microfluidic chip is a kind of technology platform based on a chip,which combines with several disciplines,such as chemistry,physics,biology and others,and could complete the processes of preparation,reaction,separation and detection of samples on a chip due to its characteristics of high throughput,high efficiency and easy operation. With the development of material science and nanotechnology,the technology has been rapidly developed and applied to chemical analysis,microbial detection and so on,in which,it has been playing an important role in microbial detection and analysis,and gradually leads to the commercial microfluidic chip that is advantaged with miniaturization,reagent saving,fast and high integration,and appropriate for dealing with public health emergencies,but is still seldom used for animal disease detection at present. In the paper,the technical principles and structure of microfluidic chip as well as its application in microbial detection were reviewed,with a view to providing some references for high-throughput detection of animal diseases.
