Improvement of the signal to noise ratio for fluorescent imaging in microfluidic chips | Scientific Reports Close banner Close banner
Microfluidics systems can be fabricated in various ways using original silicon glass systems, with easy Si processing and surface modifications for subsequent applications such as cell seeding and their study. Fluorescent imaging of cells became a standard technique for the investigation of cell behavior. Unfortunately, high sensitivity fluorescent imaging, e.g., using total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy, is problematic in these microfluidic systems because the uneven surfaces of the silicon channels’ bottoms affect light penetration through the optical filters. In this work, we study the nature of the phenomenon, finding that the problem can be rectified by using a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate, defining the channel depth by the thickness of the top Si layer, and halting the etching at the buried SiO2 layer. Then the fluorescent background signal drops by =?5 times, corresponding to the limit of detection drop from =?0.05 mM to =?50 nM of fluorescein. We demonstrate the importance of a flat surface using TIRF-based single-molecule detection, improving the signal to a noise ratio more than 18 times compared to a conventional Si wafer. Overall, using very high-quality SOI substrates pays off, as it improves the fluorescence image quality due to the increase in signal-to-noise ratio. Concerning the cost of microfluidic device fabrication—design, mask fabrication, wafer processing, and device testing—the initial SOI wafer cost is marginal, and using it improves the system performance.

Power Outage FAQs
What is Power Outage?
Power outage (also called a power cut, a power blackout, power failure or a blackout) is a short-term or a long-term loss of the electric power to a particular area.
What Causes Power Outages?
- Severe weather (high winds, lightning, winter storms, heat waves, rain or flooding can cause damage to power lines or equipment);
- Other damage to electric transmission lines (vehicle accidents, trees, and animals can cause damage to power lines or equipment);
- Repairing, maintenance or upgrades on power lines and equipment.
What are the Top Outage Safety Tips?
- Stay away from the downed power lines, park vehicles in protected areas;
- Unplug appliances and electronics, limit cell phone use to conserve battery life;
- Use portable generators outdoors only, well away from open windows and doors;
- Pack perishable foods into a cooler, keep refrigerator and freezer doors shut as much as possible.
