Custom metal chips are also available upon request.
Nanoparticle Preparation Chips
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.
