Method and System for Thermal Melt Analysiss

Agency For Science, Technology And Research (2011) Method and System for Thermal Melt Analysiss. .

Abstract

The present invention is directed at a system for carrying out a thermal melt analysis of an organic compound, wherein the system comprises: a microchannel having a first opening and a second opening at opposite ends of the microchannel, wherein the temperature at the opposite ends of the microchannel is different thereby creating a temperature gradient between the opposite ends of the microchannel; a light source emitting light which is coupled into the microchannel through the first opening; a light detector arranged to detect a light signal exiting the microchannel through the second opening; and wherein the first opening of the microchannel is in fluid communication with at least one fluid source providing at least one organic compound. The present invention is also directed to a method of using this device.
