Protofluidics - Custom Microfluidic Solutions

At the Department of Technical Biology, Augsburg 新万博体育下载_万博体育app【投注官网】 we use high-resolution 3D printing techniques to develop customized microfluidic systems for your application.

?

  • Scale: With feature sizes down to 100 ?m in Z and 300 ?m in X and Y direction tiny channel networks can be created in all three dimensions.
  • Complex shapes: Overhangs, hollow structures or even a small sphere inside a microchannel? Everything possible!
  • Materials: The rigid polyacrylate material our chips are typically fabricated from may be disinfected using ethanol or even sterilized by heat steam sterilization. Furthermore, the materials show biocompatibility in respect to USP class IV and ISO-10993.
  • Speed: On-demand fabrication of the microfluidic systems within a few hours enables iterative prototyping and minimize development times.

Connectors

We support various standard connector types like Luer, Luer Lock, chromatography fittings freely combined and custom-tailored to your connector systems.

Mixing

Our tiny 3D-structured, passive micromixers overcome laminar flow and enable rapid and comprehensive mixing for dilutions gradients, nanoparticle synthesis and many more.

Sensor Integration

We integrate sensors of your choice into microfluidic systems to enable automated monitoring of your process.

Automation and Lab-on-a-Chip

Using valve and micropump systems for chip-based fluid handling we push dead volume to a minimum – ideal for low volume sampling of bioreactors, assaying, sensor calibration and many other applications.
