We present an original microfabrication-free procedure to flexibly design and fabricate 3-dimensional microchannels in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomer with a single-step process using hydrogel molds. In this process, arranged small wires of agarose-gel serve as a mold for a microchannel formed within a piece of PDMS. The advantages of the method are that 3-dimensional microchannels can be flexibly designed and fabricated by a simple procedure without using any specialized equipment or processes. Hydrogel Molding promises to make microfluidic processes more accessible in a variety of fields, including fundamental biology, biomedical engineering, material sciences and would also provide an attractive educational material for students.
