The Cross-Shaped Channel Chip - With electrodes in non contact mode Fluidic 394 is a specialized microfluidic device designed for cross-junction experiments with electrodes placed in non-contact mode. This chip allows precise control of sample volume using 200 µm channel depth and width, and a channel length of 87 mm. Flexible volume selection is possible by adjusting flow rates or liquid volumes. The device features a single cross-junction channel configuration, enabling multiple experimental channels within one chip platform. Its non-contact gold/titanium electrode design eliminates direct contact between electrodes and the analyte, supporting versatile applications.
General
These cross-shaped channel chips come in the extended size platform I shape (95 x 16 x 1.5 mm). They feature a cross-junction and electrodes in non-contact mode. The electrodes are made of 10 nm titanium and 100-150 nm gold. They are placed on top of the cover lid and assembled towards the atmosphere, resulting in the electrode and the liquid to be analyzed having no contact. The use of this chip requires a special instrumentation set-up. Check out our ChipGenie® editionE2 for more information. The channels feature the following dimensions: * Channel depth: 200 µm * Channel width: 200 µm * Channel length: 87 mm
Features & Benefits
- Non-contact Electrodes: The gold/titanium electrodes are separated from the fluid, so there is no direct contact with samples. This reduces contamination and extends chip lifespan.
- Precise Channel Dimensions: The uniform channel geometry of 200 µm depth and width ensures reproducibility in experiments and high-quality fluid control.
- Versatile Chip Material Options: The chip body and lid can be selected in Zeonor or PMMA, giving users greater compatibility with solvents and processes.
- Easy Fluidic Connection: Each chip features a Luer interface, simplifying setup with standard syringes or tubing.
- Transparent Construction: The transparent chip allows real-time visual monitoring of the experiment process.
