Provided are an apparatus for circulating a carrier fluid having two or
more chambers or sections, an apparatus for amplifying a nucleic acid
using the same, and a chip containing the same. The apparatus for
circulating a carrier fluid includes two or more chambers maintained at
different temperatures, each chamber having an inlet valve containing a
pneumatic air pressure port for controlling inflow of the carrier fluid
to the chamber (inlet pneumatic air pressure port), and an outlet valve
containing a pneumatic air pressure for controlling outflow of the
carrier fluid from the chamber (outlet pneumatic air pressure port),
wherein the chambers are sequentially connected such that the outlet
valve of one chamber is connected to the inlet valve of an adjacent
chamber in a direction the fluid flows.
