The Glass Droplet Generator Chip - Varying geometries - Fluidic 1196 is a precision microfluidic chip designed to enable controlled droplet generation using glass construction. Its main strengths are reliable volume control, the ability to select different volumes, and compatibility with multiple channels for flexible experimental setups.
General
Glass is the material of choice if you work with elevated temperatures or organic solvents. We offer standardized glass microfluidic chips in microscopy slide format made by wet etching (isotropic etching) to achieve smooth surfaces. Glass chips feature through-holes as fluidic interface. Liquids can be directly pipetted into the through-hole. Alternatively, we offer stand-alone olives, stand-alone Mini Luer and stand-alone Luer Lock interfaces which can be mounted directly on the chip through an adhesive ring.
Features & Benefits
- High Temperature Resistance: Made of glass, the chip performs well with elevated temperatures and organic solvents.
- Smooth Channel Surfaces: Wet isotropic etching creates smooth internal surfaces for more stable flow.
- Versatile Fluidic Interface: Through-hole design allows direct pipetting or integration with other connectors using adhesive rings.
- Multiple Droplet Geometries: Adaptable design supports different droplet generation methods and channel numbers.
- Transparent Visibility: The glass body is transparent, allowing for easy visual monitoring under a microscope.
This microfluidic chip is tailored for researchers working with variable channel geometries and who need reliable droplet formation at microscales. Thanks to its standardized slide format, it is compatible with most existing laboratory hardware and protocols. The glass body is both chemically robust and optically clear, which ensures broad compatibility with temperature-sensitive or solvent-based processes.Its through-hole interface is user-friendly—you can pipet liquids directly or use available connector options for more advanced fluidic setups. Whether you need smooth channel surfaces for clean droplet generation, or flexible integration options, this chip is useful and practical in research and development environments.
Applications
The chip is ideal for generating uniform droplets in various laboratory and industrial settings. Its main use cases include:
- Laboratory droplet microfluidics
- Pharmaceutical compound screening
- Material synthesis and emulsification
