Microfluidics

 Micromanipulators  are an important tool used to execute minute, fine-tuned movements critical for various applications including microinjection into cells or tissue, microscopy, as well as for research involving biological and nano-engineering implementation. Before selecting a micromanipulator, consider the following to choose the best option for your application:

Choosing the right syringe type depends on the specific application and the requirements of your task. Syringes come in various sizes, materials, and designs, each suited for different purposes. Here are some factors to consider when selecting a syringe type.

Deciding which syringe pump is best for your application involves factors like the flow rate, number of channels, and precision that you require to select and appropriate system. Use a syringe pump when manual syringe handling will negatively impact the delivery of your sample, and to precisely regulate the rate of fluid dispensed from a syringe. These pumps are utilized in diverse areas, including biomedical or chemical applications, general research, healthcare, and in industrial settings. Below is a guide to assist in deciding which syringe pump is most suitable for you:

In any laboratory, having key lab supplies is almost as important as having the major equipment.

The manual microsyringe pump is a convenient tool for precise manual injection of fluid using glass pipettes or similar injection devices. The design allows visual feedback of flow at the pipette tip. They can also be used as a manual micro syringe pump for perfusion or withdrawal of liquids. The resolution of the injection volume can be continuously varied from 10 nanoliters to the microliter range, depending on the syringe used. Here we show you how to setup your system.

1. Loosen the set screw on the  Adjustable Micrometer Mount, but do not remove it.
2. Tighten the thumb screw on the Ajdustable Micrometer Mount.
3. Insert the digital micrometer or the manual micrometer through the hole on the Adjustable Micrometer Mount. Then, tighen the set screw.
4. Loosen the set screw on the Syringe Piston Mount Bracket.
5. Install the Bracket on the Spindle of the Micrometer. Tighten the set screw on the Bracket
6.  Loosen the Syringe Piston Mount Bracket thumb screw and the Syringe Mount Bracket thumb...more
