4 packages are available
First level: Co-flow
A beginner package to discover microfluidics by experimenting visually a pillar concept of microfluidics: laminar flows.
1 hour guided experiments:
- Theoretical calculations related to the experiments
- Experiments using a custom microfluidic chip for introducing visually to laminar flows and mixing in microfluidics
Suited for: biologists, (bio)engineers, chemists, but also for high schools with scientific program.
First level: Resistance
Master and take advantage of one powerful tool for optimizing your microfluidic experiments: the hydrodynamic resistance.
1 hour guided experiments:
- Perform resistance measurements on the microfluidics system
- Theoretical calculations related to the experiments
Suited for: physicists, (bio)engineer and fresh microfluidic users
Full package: Droplet
Get the most complete overview, with experiments pushed to real-world applications: droplet-based microfluidics.
4 hours guided experiments:
- Droplet generation experiments
- Particle encapsulation experiments
- Theoretical calculations related to the experiments
- Experiments from co-flow and Resistance
Suited for: (bio)engineers, chemical engineering, physicists, biologists and researchers
Second level: Co-flow & Resistance
Please refer to the Co-flow and Resistance Packages for the setup overviews.
Co-flow and resistance in a all in one package for a first overview on microfluidics.
2 hours guided experiments
Suited for: (bio)engineers, physicists, chemists
FAQ
The dye solutions are indeed included. They are food dyes, therefore nontoxic, and you do not need to take precautions while manipulating them.
The handbook and accessories are part of the Educational Packages and cannot be ordered separately.
Pressure source (and pressure regulator) are not included in the packages but can be ordered along with a package. Otherwise, all instruments and solutions are included in the packages for starting experiments.
