VenaDeltaY1 and VenaDeltaY2
The VenaDeltaY1™ and VenaDeltaY2™ biochips contain branching microchannels for dual flow / dual injection of samples. Ideal for studying chemotactic gradients, dual flow, multilaminar flow & diffusion.
Features:
• Disposable plastic biochips for studying chemotactic gradients, dual flow, multilaminar flow & diffusion.
• Suitable for brightfield, phase contrast and fluorescent microscopy.
• Suitable for cell-based assays with whole blood, primary cells, rare cells e.g. where samples are more difficult to retrieve or culture or only small sample volumes available.
• No assembly of the biochip is required unlike many standard perfusion chambers / flow chambers.
• No luer lock connections which increase dead volume. Cellix’s biochips have a unique plug & play connection with tubing connections which are autoclaveable and reuseable.
Applications: chemotactic gradients, dual flow, multilaminar flow & diffusion.
