Oxygen plasma treatment for reducing hydrophobicity of a sealed polydimethylsiloxane microchannel

Rapid prototyping of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is often used to build microfluidic devices. However, the inherent hydrophobic nature of the material limits the use of PDMS in many applications. While different methods have been developed to transform the hydrophobic PDMS surface to a hydrophilic s...
