An integrated UV absorbance detection system employing a novel silicon-in-plastic technology to seamlessly integrate bare UV photodiode chips into polymer microfluidic systems has been developed. Detection platforms fabricated using this approach exhibit exceptionally low concentration and mass detection limits down to 15 nM and 9.8 amol, respectively, for bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a model protein. In addition to providing high sensitivity, sub-nanoliter detection volumes are enabled by the use of direct photodiode integration. The fabrication methodology is detailed, and system performance metrics including detection limits, detection volume, dynamic range, and linearity are reported.
