  • Publication number: 20230256440
    Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, am ejection system is described. The ejection system includes a fluid feed slot to supply fluid to a number of fluid ejection channels where each fluid ejection channel is a recirculating channel. Each fluid ejection channel includes a sensor to detect, in the fluid, a target particle to be ejected and a fluid ejector to eject the target particle from the fluid ejection channel. The ejection system also includes a controller to selectively activate the fluid ejector when the target particle presence is detected. Non-target particles are returned to the fluid feed slot past the fluid ejector.

  • Publication number: 20220184601
    Abstract: A microfluidic dispenser can include a processor to receive a user input via a user interface related to limiting dilution (or a limiting dilution assay) to be performed, and calculate a dispense volume of a fluid for the limiting dilution based on the user input. The microfluidic dispenser can also include a dispense cassette including a fluid reservoir, and a microfluidic dispense head to dispense the fluid via a nozzle in accordance with the calculated dispense volume.
