Microfluidics Platform


Assembly1

For use with the De Novo Synthesis portion of this project a microfluidics platform is being developed in conjunction. It is unrealistic to have a lab worker pipetting for hours upon hours to produce large DNA sequences. This greatly aids in that by simplifying and automating the process. The main components are made by laser cut acrylic, 3-D printed components and the pump and arm are controlled by an arduino.
