Abstract
Disclosed are a microfluidic device and a sample analysis apparatus using the microfluidic device. According to an exemplary embodiment, there is provided microfluidic device including: a rotating body; and at least one microfluidic structure disposed at a predetermined interval in the rotating body, wherein the microfluidic structure includes a pretreatment unit which shares a solution injected through a solution injected through a solution inlet with another adjacent microfluidic structure through a sharing channel and performs a pretreating process for a sample injected through a sample inlet and the solution; a storage unit which is located outside the pretreatment unit in a radial direction in the rotating body and separately stores the sample and solution pretreated by the pretreatment unit based on a rotational direction of the rotating body; and a detection unit which distributes a target material in the pretreated sample from the storage unit and performs the detection on the distributed target material.
