Abstract

A photosynthetic device includes a main body defining a microfluid chamber for causing photosynthesis therein, and a light source, wherein the microfluid chamber is constituted by at least one communication room, a plurality of micro channels respectively and spatially communicated with the communication room, at least one micro injection duct spatially communicated with the communication room, and a plurality of filter plugs spatially connected to the micro channels respectively and the micro injection duct at free ends thereof in order to filter fluid backflow in the micro channels and the micro injection duct. The light source radiates ceaselessly one of the communication room, the plurality of micro channels and the micro injection duct. The photosynthesis is resulted once chloroplasts and normal saline solution are injected into one of the communication room, the plurality of micro channels and the micro injection duct.
