A novel microfluidic-device for water disinfection diverse physiochemical effects has been demonstrated. Firstly, a microfluidic device with embedded, multiple germicidal UV-LEDs was fabricated through the innovatively modified cost-effective soft-lithography process. Further, synthesised silver nanoparticles were immobilized within its inner microchannel surface. Disinfection results proved the synergistic bactericidal effect of coated AgNPs and coupled UV-light, while a suspension of bacterial strains, were passed through the micro-device.
一种具有多种物理化学效应的新型用于水消毒的微流控装置已得到验证。首先，通过创新改进的具有成本效益的软光刻工艺制造了一种嵌入多个杀菌紫外发光二极管的微流控装置。此外，将合成的银纳米颗粒固定在其内部微通道表面。消毒结果证明了涂覆的银纳米颗粒和耦合紫外光的协同杀菌效果，同时让细菌菌株的悬浮液通过该微装置。
