    摘要: A system includes a chip-receiving component, a first fluid processing assembly, a second fluid processing assembly, and a fluid communication pathway. The chip-receiving component is to receive a process chip having microfluidic passageways. The first fluid processing assembly is to communicate fluids to microfluidic passageways of a process chip received by the chip-receiving component. The second fluid processing assembly includes a sample support feature to support sample containers. The second fluid processing assembly also includes a plurality of sampling heads to selectively communicate fluids from sample containers supported by the sample support feature. The fluid communication pathway includes a plurality of conduits to provide fluid communication between the first fluid processing assembly and the plurality of sampling heads. The first fluid processing assembly is to further communicate fluids from the fluid communication pathway to microfluidic passageways of a process chip received by the chip-receiving component.

    摘要: The application relates to microfluidic apparatus and methods of use thereof. Provided in one example is a microfluidic device comprising: a first fluidic input and a second fluidic input; and a fluidic intersection channel to receive fluid from the first fluidic input and the second fluidic input, wherein the fluidic intersection channel opens into a first mixing chamber on an upper region of a first side of the first mixing chamber, wherein the first mixing chamber has a length, a width, and a depth, wherein the depth is greater than about 1.5 times a depth of the fluidic intersection channel; an outlet channel on an upper region of a second side of the first mixing chamber, wherein the outlet channel has a depth that is less than the depth of the first mixing chamber, and wherein an opening of the outlet channel is offset along a width of the second side of the first mixing chamber relative to the fluidic intersection.

    摘要: An apparatus includes a process chip and a dynamic light scattering assembly. The process chip includes a fluid chamber including and an optically transmissive material adjacent to the fluid chamber. The process chip is to be removably positioned in relation to the dynamic light scattering assembly. The dynamic light scattering assembly is to direct the light through the optically transmissive material and into the fluid chamber. The dynamic light scattering assembly is further to receive light scattered by particles in fluid in the fluid chamber in response to the first optical fiber emitting light into the fluid chamber and thereby capture light scattering data. A processor determines viscosity of fluid in the fluid chamber based on the captured light scattering data. The processor also determines one or both of size or size distribution of particles in the fluid based the captured light scattering data.
