Abstract:
The present invention relates to a pump and pumping system for a microfluidic lab-on-a-chip, and a fabricating method thereof. An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides a method of fabricating a pump for microfluidic lab-on-a-chips, the method including: infiltrating PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) solution into a porous lump of water-soluble material; performing soft baking of the porous lump of water-soluble material containing the PDMS solution; and dissolving the porous lump of water-soluble material via water to obtain a porous PDMS structure.
