The Cross-Shaped Channel Chip - W 80 µm H 80 µm channel Fluidic 161 is a microfluidic chip designed for precise separation and manipulation of small liquid volumes in research and diagnostics. Its unique selling points include a channel depth and width of 80 µm each, volume selection flexibility via three inlet channels per flow path, and the ability to operate two channels simultaneously. Its cross-shaped layout is optimized for experiments where reproducibility and defined flow paths are critical.
General
The cross-shaped channel chip Fluidic 161 possesses two separate channels on one chip. Each channel is equipped with three inlet channels, one of those with, one without a channel offset. Each channel features the following dimensions: * Channel depth: 80 µm * Channel width: 80 µm * Channel length from crossing: 53.3 mm
Features & Benefits
- Dual Independent Channels: Two completely separate microfluidic channels facilitate simultaneous experiments or parallel processing without cross talk.
- Three Inlet Options per Channel: Each flow path provides multiple inlet options for precise and customizable fluid routing.
- High Dimensional Precision: Tight control of channel dimensions (80 µm width and depth) improves consistency for quantitative research applications.
- Compatible Interfaces: Mini Luer interfaces simplify connection to pumps and tubing without complex adapters.
- Material Choices Available: Configure in Topas or PMMA to match application and chemical compatibility needs.
