Abstract
The present invention relates to a microfluidic chip and a real-time analysis device using same, and more specifically, to a microfluidic chip and a real-time analysis device using same capable of securing reliability of measurement results by appropriately preventing reduction of optical signal sensitivity due to bubbles included in a fluid. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the microfluidic chip is provided. The microfluidic chip comprises: at least one reaction chamber which comprises at least one optical measuring area, and in which a random reaction of a fluid received therein takes place; and a bubble eliminating portion comprising a light transmitting material which protrudes from an the inner surface of an upper part of the microfluidic chip toward the inside of the reaction chamber, to prevent bubbles included in the fluid from being included in the optical measuring area.
