LabSmith, Inc., developer of tools for science, has added automated valves to its uProcess family of hardware and software products for automated microfluidic and nanofluidic experimentation.
LabSmith’s AV201 automated, 2-position valves provide programmable control over fluid routing in a fraction of the footprint required by most valves. AV201 valves provide “L” pattern flow routing at pressures up to 10 kpsi, with models available for use with 360 micron, 1/32″ or 1/16″ tubing. All models feature zero dead volume connections, nanoliter swept volumes, rapid, reliable switching, low carryover and easy cleaning.
