Dolomite has introduced the glass microfluidic Y-Junction chip for multiphase flow.
Enabling liquid-liquid contact of immiscible fluid streams as well as investigations into the diffusion of molecules between parallel laminar flow streams, the chip has smooth channel surfaces for an uninterrupted flow.
Measuring 22.5 x 15mm, the Y-Junction chip is compatible with the Mitos chip holder H and the Mitos edge connector.
A wide temperature and pressure range in combination with excellent chemical compatibility enable a broad range of fluids to be used, according to Dolomite.
Furthermore, good spectral transmission facilitates high visibility, making access with microscopy systems quick and easy.
Customised options enable the chip to be tailored to fulfil individual user specifications.
As such, it can be etched to a range of different depths, and custom channel layouts can be specified.
As the surface of the channel walls has an effect on the fluid, the Y-Junction chip is available with hydrophilic, hydrophobic, platinum, or gold coatings.
