This subfamily of splitter chips is particularly suited for applications in which one microfluidic stream needs to be divided into several fractions for downstream applications.
Fluidic 532 features two splitter units and can be used to divide one microfluidic stream in four or eight fractions.
Moreover, Fluidic 532 contains performance enhancing capillary stops. These stops, characterized by higher flow resistance than the channels, act as temporary barriers, allowing liquid to distribute only when all distribution channels are uniformly filled. This synchronized filling ensures a timely and coordinated distribution of the fluid.
