Microfluidic design specialist Dolomite has introduced a droplet collection system for small-scale fluid control and analysis.
Developed for generation, collection and analysis of droplets, the modular system is said to benefit a range of applications, including drug delivery, synthesis of polymeric microspheres for diagnostics and biotechnology, studies of droplet coalescence as well as emulsion chemistry.
It provides a complete toolkit, enabling the immediate generation of highly monodispersed droplets (aqueous or organic) from O 10um to 150um.
The system is said to be easy to use and features two Mitos P-Pumps providing pulse-less and stable liquid flow, as well as the Mitos droplet collection module, a quartz vessel enabling droplets to be collected without flow disruption and droplet coalescence.
The pressure-driven pumps and flow resistors enable precise control over flow rates and droplet size, providing an advanced and flexible solution for droplet formation.
In addition, quick changes to flow conditions enable fast optimisation of droplet parameters.
A range of accessories, including high-speed optical systems, larger reservoirs, reagent kits and flow sensors provide an additional level of user flexibility, according to Dolomite.
