Weir-filter chip - 5 µm to 20 µm slits Fluidic 220

The Weir-filter chip - 5 µm to 20 µm slits Fluidic 220 is a microfluidic chip designed to enable efficient particle trapping through four different weir units, with slits at heights of 5 µm, 10 µm, and 20 µm. The main advantages include multiple channel options and volume selection, supporting the handling and trapping of various particles like beads or cells within dedicated chambers.

General

The weir-filter chip contains four different weir units, which enable the user to trap particles like beads or cells within the trapping chambers. The slits, enabling this trapping effect, come at the heights of 5 µm, 10 µm and 20 µm.

Features & Benefits

• Multiple Weir Units: The chip features four units for versatile trapping of a range of particle sizes. This makes it suitable for different applications that require flexible trapping options.
• Various Slit Heights: Trap particles effectively by using slits of 5 µm, 10 µm, or 20 µm. You can select the slit height that matches your sample type.
• Chamber and Barrier Design: Chambers and barriers help isolate and trap particles. This limits cross-contamination and maintains sample integrity during experiments.
• Material Flexibility: Available in Topas, Zeonor, and PC. Choose a chip that fits your chemical or optical requirements.
• Surface Treatment Options: Not treated or hydrophilized surfaces give you control over fluid interactions with the chip.
• Mini Luer Interface: This standard fluidic interface makes it simple to integrate into existing setups.

The Weir-filter chip - 5 µm to 20 µm slits Fluidic 220 is engineered to support reproducible and reliable trapping of particles in microfluidic workflows. Four integrated weir units with varying slit heights provide users with flexibility to process multiple particle sizes in a single chip. This makes it a valuable tool for researchers needing both versatility and precision.

Manufactured with options for different polymers and surface treatments, the chip can be customized for diverse sample needs—whether you require hydrophilic surfaces for improved flow control or transparent materials for easy imaging. The Mini Luer interface ensures broad compatibility with standard lab equipment. The chip’s transparent construction also allows visual monitoring of trapping processes in real time.
