Plasmochemical Synthesis of Carbon-Containing Films on the Surface of Aluminum Microchips for Polymerase Chain Reaction

Abstract

A method of plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) modifying the surface of aluminum microchips for polymerase chain reaction in a real time mode (rt-PCR) is developed. Compounds of different classes - alkanes, alcohols, siloxanes - are used as plasma-forming substances. Properties of the films thus obtained were tested under PCR conditions using the developed model. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is used to study the permeability of the samples. The morphological properties are studied by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis (EDXMA). It is shown that the most inert coatings, biocompatible under PCR conditions are obtained using hexamethyldisiloxane in PECVD as a plasma-forming substance.
