  • Publication number: 20240139733
    Abstract: A method (200) for producing a microfluidic apparatus (100) according to one or more design constraints. The method comprises: providing (210) a first substrate (110) comprising multiple fluid channels (120), wherein the channels have an inlet (123) and an outlet (124); implementing (220) a configuration of connecting channels (150) on at least one second substrate (140) depending on the specified design constraints of the microfluidic apparatus (100); such that by aligning (230) the first substrate with the at least one second substrate, at least some inlets and outlets of the fluid channels of the first substrate are connected to the connecting channels (150) and a microfluidic device (100) complying with the one or more design constraints is obtained.

  • Patent number: 11940422
    Abstract: A microfluidic device for analysing a specimen comprises a loading area for loading the specimen of interest and an analytical column. The loading area is connected on two sides to a first duct and a second duct respectively, both integrated in the microfluidic device. The microfluidic device comprises a first integrated input connected to the first duct to take the specimen into the loading area, a first integrated output connected to the second duct to discharge the rest of the specimen, once it has flown through the loading area, and a second integrated output downstream the analytical column. The first integrated output is arranged for during a first loading period of time being in circuit connected to the first integrated input so as to load the sample into the loading zone of the device while preventing loss of specimen during loading of the sample into the analytical column.

  • Patent number: 10358274
    Abstract: A tray system includes a first tray having a plurality of stacking units. In one embodiment, each stacking unit forms a lower receptacle for receiving a neck portion of a first bottle, and an upper receptacle for receiving a base portion of a second bottle to be stacked above the first bottle. The lower receptacle has a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a sidewall connecting the first end with the second end. The first end forms an opening for receiving a neck of a first bottle into the lower receptacle. The sidewall has a taper that prevents racking. The tray system may also include a second tray and a pallet.
