Computer Simulation Analysis of Microchannel for a Continuous-Flow PCR Chip

Article Preview

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to analyze the model of a continuous-flow Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) chip with CoventorWare software. It offered the ability of fast heating and cooling rate when the DNA duplication process happened. The main idea was to compare the effects of different cross sections of channel and find out the better one for heat transfer.
