This module is
used to merge adjacent droplets together in a precisely metered
process with no loss of reagent volume. Coalescence
of droplets combines multiple reagents to start or stop reactions
in individual NanoReactors™ enabling multi-step processes
on-chip.
High speed video camera slows the speed of microdroplets by a factor of 1000, showing individual samples flowing through a NanoReactor Chip at 2500 droplets per second
The
Professional Laboratory System™ is operated using NanoReactor™ Chips
that are designed by combining separate fluid handling modules
on a single chip to perform the technique of interest. The
inventory of modules includes:
