Description

Application

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 generator chip - Four elements per chip design, Fluidic 537, COC is made of COC (Cyclic olefin copolymer ). The droplet generator with design number 537 possesses a classic flow focusing geometry, suited to generate simple droplets. With four identical droplet generator units on one microfluidic chip, this device is ideal to compare multiple experimental setups in parallel, without the need of ordering a new chip for every experiment. Please be aware that this chip is one of the few droplet generators devices with Luer interfaces and appropriate Luer compatible accessories are required.
