Hydrodynamic Focusing

Hydrodynamic focusing leverages the inherent flow physics advantages of microfluidic systems to surmount challenges like mixing and particle delivery, such as cells for counting. It necessitates consistent flow rates, valving, and automated pump and valve control to guide on-chip processes, along with process visualization using tools like micro particle image velocimetry. LabSmith's distinctive combination of uProcess automated syringe pumps and valves, integrated breadboard, fluid reservoirs, CapTite microfluidic microconnectors, and the SVM340 synchronized video microscope with uScope software fulfills the needs to investigate and manage hydrodynamic focusing on-a-chip for varied applications.

• Consistent Flow Rates: Ensure predictable and reliable fluid flow
• Valving Functionality: Control fluid pathways with precision
• Automated Pump and Valve Management: Streamline operations with automated control
• Process Visualization: Monitor and analyze fluid dynamics using micro particle image velocimetry
