FEATURES & BENEFITS

Features

The pilot-scale nanoparticle generator (NP-M1) is a pilot-grade platform designed for the manufacturing of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), polymer nanoparticles, emulsions, and other nano-formulations. The NP-M1 supports non-standard customization and provides essential functions for continuous nanoparticle preparation. With flexible optional modules, it can achieve liquid line heating, flow-rate feedback, online dilution, and automatic switching of pre- and post- waste streams.The NP-M1 simplifies the workflow while ensuring product stability. The software also includes an audit trail function and complies with 21 CFR Part 11 requirements.

Pre/Post Waste Switching System

Provides real-time response and rapid switching, with a well-designed fluidic path that eliminates the risk of waste backflow.

Optional Liquid Mixers (Chips)

Available materials: 316L stainless steel and Hastelloy.

FluidicLab offers three standardized chip designs for liquid mixing:

– Vortex mixing

– Impinging jet mixing

– Split-and-recombine (SAR) mixing

Custom metal chips are also available upon request.

Nanoparticle Preparation Chips

Impinging Jet Mixing Chip (T-mix)

Impinging Jet Mixing Chip (T-mix)

The T-mix chip demonstrates excellent performance in scale-up production, offering advantages such as simple fabrication, low flow esistance, and a high upper limit for flow rates. These features have made it the preferred design for many leading vaccine manufacturers and nanoparticle production facilities. FluidicLab provides T-mix chips with various channel widths and can customize them to meet different flow-rate requirements under diverse production conditions.

Vortex Mixing Chip (Vortex)

As a novel mixing architecture, the Vortex chip supports two to four liquid inlets. In typical LNP formulation processes, the Vortex chip can achieve mixing performance comparable to a T-mix chip at relatively low flow rates, producing particles with similar sizes. When the flow rate increases, the Vortex chip yields significantly smaller particle sizes with a lower PDI. This chip is also widely applicable for the preparation of various nanoparticle formulations, including polymeric nanoparticles (e.g., PLGA) and liposomes.
