Overview of our microfluidics offering

definition 

microfluidics is a multidisciplinary field that deals with the behavior and precise control of fluids in microchannels with typical dimensions ranging from a few micrometers to several hundred micrometers. This technology enables the miniaturization of processes and systems for a variety of applications in different disciplines. Thus, microfluidics innovative solutions for handling small liquid volumes.

Production of microfluidic chips from glass

Our product range includes the production of Microfluidic chips made of glassGlass is a preferred material for microfluidic applications due to its optical transparency, chemical inertness, and the possibility of precise microstructuring. The production of Chips made of glass enables the realization of complex channel networks and functionalities for demanding experiments and devices.

Principles and characteristics 

In microfluidic systems, surface forces dominate over volume forces due to their small dimensions. This leads to unique flow properties and enables precise control over fluids. Typical features of microfluidics are the use of microchannels, small sample and reagent volumes and the possibility of integrating different functions on a single chip.

Areas of application 

The microfluidics is widely used in various scientific and industrial fields. In diagnostics, it enables the development of point-of-care devices for rapid and cost-effective analyses. In pharmaceutical research, it is used for drug screening and the development of organ-on-a-chip systems. Other fields of application include chemical synthesis, environmental analysis, and basic research in physics and biology.
