3D Flowchips

3D Flowchips are consumable which are used with Pu·MA Systems. These commercially available consumables are sold in a set of 96 tests (3 packages). 3D Flowchips are specially designed with microfluidic channels and to be used for 3D cell cultures and assays within Pu·MA Systems using pre-loaded protocols. The system maintains the 3D cell models in a unique protected sample chamber that allows easy media, metabolite or reagent exchanges for oncology, toxicity, or metabolomics research. This platform enables multiparametric data collection.

3D Flowchips

3D Flowchips are consumables that are to be used within the Pu·MA System designed using proprietary microfluidics. 4 flowchips fit in the holder and they are specially designed for reagent exchange via microfluidic channels.

Features:

  • Use between 1 to 4 flowchips per assay.
  • Each lane = 1 test; Adjacent wells connected by microfluidics.
  • Optically clear bottom for high-content imaging.
  • Sample well has protected sample chamber
  • Wells = 384-well spacing (SLAS ANSI standard)

    How do media transfers take place?
