Engineering

Fluid Transfer

As the kit performs a biological analysis, at some point, fluid transfer will be needed to move a specific reagent to another compartment. That is why we designed a system that delivers a precise quantity of reagents at a given time. While observing syringe pumps in a lab specialised in microfluidics, we had an idea: recreating the principle used in these syringe pumps, in a 3D printed structure, controlled by an Arduino Card. Reaching the same accuracy than the existing devices is essential even though it might be challenging.
