DNA hybridization is a fundamental process in molecular biology where two single-stranded DNA or RNA molecules bind to form a double helix. This process, driven by the formation of hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs, is the basis for countless diagnostic and research applications, including gene expression analysis, PCR, and pathogen detection.

Historically, DNA hybridization proceeded slowly, constrained by molecular diffusion constraints in macroscopic solutions. Microfluidic systems circumvent this restriction by functioning at micron dimensions, where liquid motion adheres to laminar regimes. This distinctive hydrodynamic characteristic guarantees molecules follow defined, parallel trajectories, preventing stochastic diffusion-governed mixing typical of bulk-phase reactions. Through designing such regulated conditions, we markedly enhance the likelihood of target molecules contacting cognate probes. This not only hastens molecular binding dynamics, shortening test durations from hours to minutes, but also profoundly elevates detection sensitivity by concentrating analytes across probe surfaces. Capability to process microliter-to-nanoliter sample/reagent quantities represents a vital benefit, yielding significant cost efficiencies and enabling examination of scarce, inaccessible, or purification-costly specimens. Empirical evidence confirms microfluidic apparatuses can decrease hybridization periods from >12 hours to <10 minutes while consuming minimal sample volumes.
