Microfluidics expert Dolomite has enhanced its
world leading Mitos P-Pump range with the introduction of intelligent
closed-loop Flow Controlwhich
provides unparalleled control of flow rates from 70 nl/min to 5 ml/min.
The improved flow rate precision of the new
software benefits the fields of droplet generation, micro process engineering
and microreaction kinetics.
By connecting a Mitos Flow Rate Sensor in-line
between the pump and microfluidic device, users can enter a flow rate target
directly on the Mitos P-Pump itself with no need for a PC. Systems can be
extended to multiple P-Pumps, which will all control flow rate independently. Featuring
quick changeover between flow control and pressure control, users can continue
to enjoy the outstanding flow smoothness of the pressure driven Mitos P-Pump,
but with even more accurate control over the delivery of picolitre reagent
volumes into the system.
Operating in flow control mode provides
quantifiable benefits in droplet microfluidics.
Dolomite's flow control software has set a new benchmark for droplet
monodispersity with a CV < 0.14 % measured for the droplet size over long
time periods.
