Droplet generation and storage chip

Microfludic chip x1

Microfluidic generation of droplets can produce highly monodispersed droplets with high frequency (up to hundreds of kHz). Interest in droplet-based microfluidic systems has grown substantially, because microfluidics offers the ability to handle very small volumes (μl to fl) of fluids, provides better mixing, encapsulation, sorting, and sensing. Microfluidics can be used for high throughput experimentation. Microfluidic-based droplets have many diverse and varied applications such as particle synthesis and chemical analysis. Highly controlled droplet production also makes single cell analysis, or drug testing possible.
Droplet generation and storage chip, Fluidic 719, PC is made of PC (polycarbonate), and has a storage channel design, which can be used for optical analysis. The channel design of Fluidic 719 has an additional flow focusing junction and droplet storage is realized in one channel, rather than in rhombic units. The chip contains 2261 storage positions and can be used for a wide-range of applications including droplet-based cell culture/monitoring.
