View More Pipette design has taken a quantum leap forward. The modern pipette and its components have undergone significant evolution and practical redesign since the origins of pipetting in the 18th century. Following the 1980s introduction of multichannel liquid-handling devices with positioning stage bases for holding microplates, pipette tips, and reservoirs, however, pipette design experienced a 30-year […]
View More Learn more about how porous materials can enhance the performance of a microfluidic device by helping to manipulate small amounts of fluids through micrometer-scale channels.
View More Macro-venting pertains to the use of high air permeable, liquid repelling membranes to allow pressure and/or temperature differences between the inside and outside of automobile headlamps to equalize quickly and efficiently, preventing the bulb and/or the housing itself from developing fissures and malfunctioning. While effective in many applications, Oxyphen has found that these membranes are […]
