VENA8 WITH GLASS COVERSLIP

​

​

Features:

​

• Cell rolling and adhesion on proteins; seeding of cells or microbes enabling subsequent study of drug interaction, imaging or molecular biology studies under shear flow.

• Biochips are supplied with or without glass coverslip attached.  

• Biochips available for low or high flow rates / shear stresses.

• Ideal for whole blood, primary cells, rare cells e.g. where samples are more difficult to retrieve or culture or only small sample volumes available.

• Perfect for high flow rates / high shear stresses e.g. platelet adhesion, aggregation and thrombi formation studies for thrombosis using whole blood.  In conventional flow chambers / perfusion chambers; significant volumes of blood would be required making the assay impossible.

• Suitable for biofilm applications; particularly Vena8 biochips supplied without glass coverslip:  user may attach any type of coupon to bottom of the biochip.

• No assembly of the biochip is required unlike many conventional 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.
