A fluidic system dedicated to cell culture

Elveflow® provides a perfusion system dedicated to cell culture, for lab-on-chips and perfusion chambers. This fully integrated solution includes all the necessary elements to create a continuous flow and monitor flow rate applied on the cells.

Switch between up to 10 different medium or reagents

For experiments requiering switches between different culture medium or drugs, a computer-controlled valve allows sequential injection.

In collaboration with ALine Inc., Elveflow provides a microfluidic chip designed for cell culture.

Pressure & Flow controller: Impose a given pressure in order to create a stable and pulseless flow rate.

Reservoirs: Contain your medium or samples. Various sizes are available, from Eppendorf to bottles.

Rotative valve: Select the injected liquid.

Flow Sensor: Monitor and control the flow rate in live time.

Perfusion chamber or microfluidic chip: Contains your cells. Compatible with microscopy.

Computer: Control all the parameters with our software, and automate your experiment by creating injection sequences.
