Abstract

A micro-chip based real-time PCR device has been developed for biorobustness research and systems biology. The device is constructed of a silicon-glass chip, a Peltier element and a microscopy. With the device, amplification of target gene on a plasmid and housekeeping gene were detected simultaneously, and the copy number of the plasmid could be estimated. We had optimized the device, and achieved detection of fluorescent intensity increase in reaction channels.
