Abstract: An apparatus for cleaning a microfluidic chip having microchannels is provided to prevent the microfluidic chip from being contaminated by particles, by forming an intensive flow on microchannels of a lab-on-a-chip for electrophoresis by the pressure difference of a flow pump and removing particles from microchannels by the intensive flow. An apparatus for cleaning a microfluidic chip(9) having microchannels, comprises a chip fixing unit where the microfluidic chip is loaded; a flow path controller for flowing washing water to the chip fixing unit; and a pump for introducing washing water to the flow path controller. The chip fixing unit includes an upper substrate and a lower substrate, wherein the lower substrate has a groove in which the microfluidic chip is loaded. The upper substrate has a channel connection path for connecting an inlet port or an outlet port of microchannels formed at the microfluidic chip to the outside of the chip fixing unit, so that washing water flows between the outside of the chip fixing unit and the microchannels.
