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 of reagents, provides better mixing, encapsulation, sorting, and sensing. Microfluidics can be used for high throughput experimentation. Microfluidic-based droplets have many applications, including 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 1032, PC is made of PC (polycarbonate). This droplet generator chip with three identical droplet generation units of double cross geometry was specifically developed for use in single cell sequencing experiments, where single cells (W) and beads/lysis buffer (W) need to be introduced into a single droplet in an oil phase (O). Fluidic 1032 features Mini Luer interfaces and its use requires a microfluidic pump setup with the ability to control three individual flows. It is, however, also possible to use this droplet generator to generate W/O droplets by simply closing one inlet and supplying only two inlets with a liquid stream.
