Easy-to-realise Polyvinylsiloxane Microfluidic Connectors for PDMS Chips
Abstract(#br)The connection of tubes to a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) device can usually not be realised easily. Tube connectors embedded in the PDMS structure have a large foot print. Thick layers of PDMS in which the tubes or needles can hold hinders the visualisation of sample within the device. In this contribution we present microfluidic connectors for PDMS chips realized by easy-to-use elastomeric impression material polyvinylsiloxane (PVS).
