The Metrics Golden Standard Chip - Fluidic 1575 is a microfluidic device tailored for precision volume measurements across 8 separate channels. Users can select varied volumes across individual units. The chip features two main channels per unit, with distinct leakage channels for flexible experimental design.
General
The Metrics Golden Standard Chip Fluidic 1575 features 8 individual functional units with Mini Luer interfaces, each designed for exact measuring of volumes. Each design features two main channels, connected by a "leakage channel”. The leakage channels come in two distinct lengths. The cross-section of the leakage channels is rectangular and varies between designs. Further information on the background of this chip can be found in: Comparison of Measurement Protocols for Internal Channels of Transparent Microfluidic Devices, Kaal et al, Metrology 2025, 5 (1), 4.
Features & Benefits
- 8 Channels: The chip offers eight separate units for simultaneous or independent measurements. This increases throughput and experimental options.
- Volume Selection: Each channel is built to handle exact volume measurement. Users can select the suitable working volume for their needs.
- Mini Luer Interface: Each unit comes with a Mini Luer fitting. This ensures compatibility with standard lab tubing for quick integration.
- Distinct Leakage Channels: The two different leakage channel lengths provide flexible control over experiment design and testing conditions.
The Metrics Golden Standard Chip - Fluidic 1575 is engineered for researchers who need exact volume control and repeatable results. With eight channel options and a clear interface, it’s easy to connect and set up in almost any laboratory workflow. The variation in leakage channel lengths enables a broader range of fluidic experiments. The rectangular cross-section ensures reliable and clear flow characteristics.
This chip is particularly useful for labs developing or validating fluidic workflows, especially those involved in microfluidics, diagnostics, or process control. Each unit is produced from high-grade Topas materials, ensuring consistent performance and transparency for visual checks. Its versatile design supports experimental flexibility and robust results.
