NanoFlow Fluid Controller

The NanoFlow Fluid Controller offers nanoliter control of the fluid in experimental chambers or cells. Computer control allows to monitor and switch between different fluids, or to adjust salt and molecular concentrations and pH with no interruptions or imaging.

This flowmeter allows a timed sample exposure to sub-microliter quantities of reagents, allowing for observation of the results. The design ensures continuous flow-through control of the fluid environment at rates from 0 to 20 microliters per second in the standard configuration. Injection algorithms allow controlled fluid injections of quantities down to two nanoliters.

The software also allows flexible configurations for different experiments and maintenance tasks such as loading or rinsing the system. In open fluid cells, the NanoFlow can be programmed to compensate for evaporation.

The NanoFlow is compatible with both closed and open fluid cells on commercially available AFMs, as well as the Molecular Force Probe from Asylum Research.
