Millifluidic PDMS Chip
Overview
Our project is aiming for the biological implementation of cellular automata, so we have to find a way to create a regular grid of cells with a defined neighborhood. Therefor, we investigate the combination of additive manufacturing (3D-printing) and PDMS chip fabrication for applications in synthetic biology. This rapid prototyping approach should allow us to update our chips continuously according to new insights from modeling or the wet lab and to avoid more intricate photolitographic approaches, which generally require clean room access and in depth knowledge of etching techniques. As a result, we are convinced that the tinkering with 3D-printing for mold creation is perfectly in line with the do-it-yourself spirit of iGEM.
