Pack with resealable glass slides that form the top and bottom layers for organ-on-a-chip devices. This pack contains 4 top and 4 bottom layers.

Two resealable glass slides that form the top and bottom layers for organ-on-a-chip devices. When the membrane layer is placed in between these top and bottom layers, two separate flow chambers are formed. With this item, use the Fluidic Connect Pro holder for resealable flow cells.

The organ-on-a-chip top and bottom layers are intended for low pressure aplications, up to 300-400mbar. It's strongly recommend to use a pump system with addequate pressure control to assure the pressure will not exceed this value or use a pressure relieve valve.

Customer Questions
Is it possible to monitor oxygen levels?
It is possible to couple Micronit OOC devices to commercial optical readers for dissolved gases in the culture medium. This option allows for applications such as the monitoring of oxygen in the culture chamber.
Is my OOC system compatible with my imaging systems?
A document link can be found under "Read More".
The membrane is moving and flow is switching between top and bottom flow path. What is happening?
Always check that there’s no blockage in one of the flow paths, this can be verified by checking the amount of collected liquid in a specific time frame and compare it with the expected amount for the flow rate used.If this isn't the case, droplet formation on the end of the tubing is the problem. Each falling droplet affects the flow a bit, resulting in changes in flow rates. Resolve this by keeping the end of the tubing in the collection reservoir submerged in liquid.
How do I clean my resealable flow cell's / OOC top and bottom layers?
The glass layer without a gasket can be cleaned using the same methods commonly used for glass microscope slides. The gasket layer, however, requires more careful handling. For detailed instructions, see "Read More".
How do I sterilize my resealable flow cell's / OOC top and bottom layers?
Advice on sterilization of glass slides and glass slides without gasket can be found under "Read More".
What is the oxygen permeability data for the elastomer used?
More details on oxygen permeability can be found under "Read More".

What pump system should I use for a resealable flow cell or OOC chips?
It's important that the pressure system can limit the amount of pressure that will be applied. We would recommend a pressure based system. However it should be possible to use a syringe pump when a pressure relief valve is applied for each liquid path.
