Technical Architecture & Engineering #
Designing low-cost microfluidic chips demands micro-scale geometric precision to ensure consistent laminar flow regimes while preventing internal fluid leakage under high injection pressure.
Key Highlights: #
- Micro-Scale Channel Dimensions: Channel widths ranging from 200–500 µm calibrated for optimal passive fluid mixing and droplet generation.
- Optical Transparency: Fabricated using stereolithography (SLA) clear resin to facilitate real-time colorimetric sensing and microscopic optical inspection.
- Modular Interfacing: Standardized luer-lock inlet and outlet ports designed for direct integration with automated syringe pump systems.
