Which Connector to use between your Chip and your Tubing?

It is no secret that in microfluidics as in other fields, sometimes the smallest things can make the biggest difference. We all have better things to do than waste our precious time dealing with leakage, dead volume and bubbles problems.

Having microfluidic connections that are reliable and easy to operate is a first step towards success. Various microfluidic connection types are used depending on the device used, or chip type.

The following table summarizes the connection and fittings types commonly used in microfluidic setups:

Which Connector & Tubing to choose?

Microfluidic connectors can be used with various tubing sizes and types, employing the corresponding connector. Choosing the right connector for a particular application, can easily turn into a waste of time, but once again, we’ve done the job so that you can focus on your science and reach next step faster!
