Abstract The ability of nucleic acid extraction is an essential technique in molecular biology to study and diagnose the genetic causes of disease. Plastics can be great substrate for bioassay because it is cheap to produce and have great optic property since it is transparent. However, plastics have hydrophobicity which cannot be used easily without surface functionalization. The surface functionalization of plastics can be achieved not that easily. In this study, how hydrophobic surface of plastics can be functionalized with bioinspired surface coating will be addressed. In addition, how nucleic acid extractions were performed effectively using functionalized plastic substrates will be shown.
