Dolomite releases novel droplet-on-demand sequencing and droplet generation microfluidic system

Dolomite has launched Mitos Dropix, an ingenious droplet-on-demand system capable of easily generating extremely miniaturised droplet compartments with exceptional control over volume, environment and isolation of contents.

April 1, 2014 - PRLog -- Mitos Dropix is a compact, off-chip droplet generator that features a patented droplet “picking” technology. It was developed by Dolomite under exclusive sub-licence with Drop-Tech Ltd. having won Dolomite’s 2012 Productizing Science® competition. Drop-Tech was formed from an academic collaboration between Cambridge University and Imperial College London and is the exclusive licensee of their patented droplet generation technology used in Mitos Dropix (Patent Pending: PCT/GB2013/051668).

There are 24 wells in total, allowing users to combine multiple reagents to create complex assays, resulting in up to 300 combinations. 8 sample strips can also be inserted into the Dropix Sample Strip Holder thereby creating a 192 well plate configuration which facilitates preparation and allows integration with existing standard fluid handling systems. Mitos Dropix is capable of consistently generating and storing up to 1000 droplets, with accurate user-defined control of droplet size (ranging in volume from a few 10’s of nanoliters to a microliter) and frequency (up to 5Hz of one sample) achieved via Dropix PC software.

Dolomite has also released an application note demonstrating the capabilities of the Mitos Dropix system for droplet-on-demand sequencing and droplet library generation. For further information on Dolomite's Mitos Dropix system as well as a complete portfolio of microfluidic products including chips, connectors, valves and custom devices please see www.dolomite-microfluidics.com

Visit the Dolomite stand at Flow 14 International Conference on Micro and Nanofluidics at the University of Twente, The Netherlands, on 18-21 May 2014 to see a live demonstration of Mitos Dropix and also Telos, a high throughput droplet, particle and flow product generation system.
