The Fluigent Flow Controller used in this experiment is our LineUp Flow EZ™.
This component allows you to save experimental time, precious samples and expensive
reagents with significantly shorter response times compared to syringe pumps.

Time (s)Pressure-driven flow control has multiple
advantages compared to conventional
syringe and peristaltic pumps for many
applications.

Depending on the field of application,
shear stress-related flow requirements canbe different. Some studies exclude thisparameter and other researchers are trying
to reproduce in-vivo shear stress conditions.
In both cases, precise, pulseless flow control
is critical for repeatable results. Peristaltic
and syringe pumps generate pulsatile andunstable flows. Pressure-driven pumps
have been shown to provide superior
performance.

The Fluigent Flow Controller used in this experiment is our MFCS™-EX, based on thepatented FASTAB™ technology. This technology is the best adapted to manipulating
fluid volumes at the sub-microliter scale compared to syringe, peristaltic or piston pumps.
Moreover, in microdroplet generation, droplet size and frequency are directly linked to
the flow rates of the continuous and dispersed phases. Flow rate stability is critical forhaving repeatable and monodispersed droplets. Pressure pumps provide more stableflow leading to better experimental data.

The Flow EZ™ is the most advanced flow controller for pressure-based fluid
control. It can be combined with a FLOW UNIT to control both pressureand flow rate. It can be used without a PC to minimize benchtop space,or connected to the LINK to benefit from Fluigent Software features such as

LineUp™ series modules
Our LineUp™ product range is the next generation of
microfluidic systems. With the Flow EZ™ or Push-Pullmodules one can precisely regulate and control pressure& vacuum, the LINK and LINK COM modules provide
communication to a computer or any external instrument
using TTL ports, USB cable or Serial port communication.
The Adapt is used to connect Flow EZ™ modules withdifferent pressure ranges without the need of additionalpressure sources. The P-SWITCH allows to multiply
the outlets of the system and the SWITCH EZ controls
microfluidic valves. The entire system can be controlled
without a PC using local control and can also be monitoredby Fluigent Software to extend its capabilities and benefit
from automation. Select modules you need and combine

The L-SWITCH™ can be used as a useful cell culture tool: a small volume of buffer canbe recirculated within a closed loop into the chip for several hours or days. Combinedwith our MFCS™-EZ or LineUp™ series it can provide stable flow with a minimal impact
on shear stress. The valve also enables one to load and inject a precise volume of fluid.
By selecting the position of the L-SWITCH™ one will choose when to load the fluid theninject it (using a sample loop). Several sample loops are available from 5 μL to 100 μL.

dSURF Biological Applications
40

Fluorinated oils have shown several advantages compared to other carrier fluids suchas mineral oils. They show better PDMS
compatibility due to minimum swelling.
They are also more adapted to biochemical
experiments due to low organic compoundtransfer drop to drop, and they have shown
better biocompatibility in long term in droplet cell culture experiments.

dSURF is adaptable to most droplet microfluidic
applications. It comes in a 2% formula that canbe diluted with our fluorinated oil, dOIL, to suit all
application requirements. For dPCR experiments,
dSURF has demonstrated excellent compatibility
with FAM™, HEX™, VIC® and EvaGreen® dyes.

the coculture.

BE-Gradient is Beonchip’s device for the application ofchemical gradients to 3D cell cultures. BE-Gradient is compatible with any type of optical microscopy (inverted phase
contrast, confocal, fluorescence..). Be-Gradient consists ofa central chamber for cell culture and two lateral channels
connecting to the central chamber through 3 small microchannels. The lateral channels are meant to simulate bloodvessels. 2D culture is also possible for adherent cells not

Microfluidic flow management unit

OEM MICROFLUIDICCOMPONENTS
Build your complete microfluidic system with our integrate modules
and automate your fluid management.

FLOW SENSOR
Microfluidic OEM flow sensor
Our FS+ series is dedicated to flow-rate control andmonitoring. When combined with Fluigent pressure
controllers, it permits pressure-based flow control. It
enables precise and accurate measurements of dynamic
liquid flow rates from 0 – 1.5 µL/min and up to 40 mL/
min bi-directionally.

FS + series model

The multi-channel design is highly compact, ranging from 1 to 8 channels for the
OEM microfluidic modules. As fluids are not in contact with the instrument, there is no
routine cleaning and cross-contamination is drastically reduced. Positive or Negative
pressure ranges can be applied independently on different channels of the same module.
The optional advanced multi-channel Flow-Rate Control Module Software combinedwith the Flow Sensor Unit device makes it possible to have full control of flow rates in any
coupled multi-channel configuration, while keeping the benefits of pressure actuation.
Switching solutions can also be integrated to extend the fluid management capabilities.
OEM versions of the 2-SWITCH (3-port/2-way) and M-SWITCH (11-port/10-position) areavailable for integration.

TIPS
.

Working in a microfluidic environment almost automatically means using fittings andtubing to connect your microfluidic device or your Lab-on-a-chip to the various elementsof your microfluidic circuit.
• Tubing enables you to connect the various elements of your microfluidic circuit.

SUPPORT& TOOLS• Fittings enable you to attach, adapt or adjust the tubing to these elements, ensuring
tight connections.
Tubing and sleeves are defined by their diameter, length and material.

Diameter
Inner diameter (often abbreviated as “ID”) is diameter through which thefluid flows. The inner section times the length of the tubing gives you
the internal volume of the tubing. The inner diameter plays a significant
role in the fluidic resistance to flow brought by the tubing. The smaller
the diameter is, the more resistant the tubing will be.

OD

ID

LengthUsually the tubing is made as short as possible to have smaller internal volumes. It is alsoa parameter that contributes to the resistance of the tubing.
In order to get a clean interface and prevent any clogging or collapsing of the fluidic path,
all tubing should be cut with specifically designed cutters.

Materials
A wide range of materials are available for the same ID/OD combination. The material
should be selected according to the nature of the reagents flowing through the tubing.
Be careful to check the chemical compatibility of the tubing before installing it in yourapplication. Some of the most common materials for microfluidic tubing include:98■ PEEK (Polyetheretherketone): very good

■ FEP (Fluorinated ethylene-propylene):chemical resistance and biocompatibility, low non-specific adsorption. Rigid
and opaque. For low and high pressure
applications. Very small internal diameters
available.

does not react with most chemicals andis biocompatible. Flexible and transparent.
Mostly for low-pressure applications (nohigher than 7 bar).
