A pack of 3 parallel droplet generators in glass with topconnect interface to be used with the Micronit Fluidic Connect Pro chip holder.
Available uncoated (hydrophilic) for oil-in-water or with a hydrophobic coating for water-in-oil, T-shaped nozzle design.
General
T-shaped droplet generators are widely used in microfluidics to produce highly reproducible droplets. This Micronit chip offers the following features:
- Manufactured from high-quality borosilicate glass, inert to most chemicals and biocompatible
- Precision-etched microfluidic channels for reproducible results
- T-shaped geometry: stable and highly monodisperse droplet generation
- Uncoated (hydrophilic) for oil-in-water (O/W) droplet generation, or coated (hydrophobic) for water-in-oil (W/O) droplet generation
Easily change the droplet size and frequency by tuning the flow rates of the dispersed and continuous phases.
