Abstract

Nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) is an attractive building material for lab-on-a-chip devices due to its excellent biochemical and physical properties. In this paper we demonstrate that diamond exhibited the most resistance to non-specific DNA binding when compared to six other commonly used lab-on-a-chip building materials. This property is of critical importance to applications requiring high levels of purity and sensitivity.
