Assembly of multichannel flow chambers using UV adhesive. (Top) A quartz slide is shown with six holes drilled (e.g., arrow) to create three flow chambers. Strips of single-sided tape (curved brackets) demark the walls of the flow chambers. A thin bead of UV adhesive sits on the center of each strip of tape but does not exceed the width of the tape. (Bottom) The same slide is shown after the cover glass has been applied (straight bracket denotes edges of the cover glass). The adhesive has flowed to cover the tape edges and now constitutes the walls of the flow chamber. The flow chambers are then cured with UV light.
