Lab-on-a-Chip
- Arbitrarily shaped patterns can be dispensed on-the-fly
- Dispensing of very small volumes (less than 100 pl) with a high repetition accuracy
- Pattern recognition system for easy identification of fiducials and recognition of structures
Lab-on-a-Chip devices are used for a wide variety of health care applications, especially in the area of point-of-care diagnostics. These small microfluidic devices equipped with microchannels, chambers and other features carry out diagnostic tests by enabling reactions between patient samples and reagents. The devices deliver test results with very small sample volumes and in a short period of time.
Deposition of reagents onto the chip is a demanding task and requires the filling of small cavities and microchannels with a high accuracy, which can be efficiently done with the Autodrop platforms. The flexibility of the microdrop dispensing systems and positioning platforms allows for custom-made solutions adapted to the specific customer needs.
