Droplet generator chip - Multi channel design

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 - Multi channel design, Fluidic 440, PC is made of PC (polycarbonate) is suited to evaluate droplet generation with a single cross, flow focusing geometry. The nozzle sizes are 50, 60, 70 and 80 μm on this chip. With its two Mini Luer inlet and one Mini Luer outlet ports per droplet generation unit, the chip requires a two-channel microfluidic pump. There are 8 droplet generator units on this chip.
