Droplet Generator with Monitoring Chamber - 50 µm and 60 µm nozzles Fluidic 1114

The Droplet Generator with Monitoring Chamber - 50 µm and 60 µm nozzles Fluidic 1114 is a microfluidic chip designed to create and monitor droplets using precise 50 µm and 60 µm flow focusing nozzles and offers selection between two nozzle volumes. It features eight independent droplet generation channels, providing flexible droplet production and analysis. The integrated observation chambers allow users to capture, study, and control droplets in real-time for applications demanding high reproducibility and precise volume selection. This chip is uniquely manufactured from Topas material, making it suitable for applications requiring elevated temperatures such as PCR.

General

The droplet generator chip Fluidic 1114 features eight droplet generation units with a simple flow focusing nozzle of 50 µm and 60 µm. The generated droplets can be captured, monitored and manipulated in the observation chambers that lie downstream of the nozzles. The monitoring chamber come at a height of 60 µm and 80 µm. As oppose to most other droplet generators in our portfolio, this chip was produced from a Topas material with a high glass transition temperature and can therefore be used in applications that required high temperatures, such as PCR.
