General

Focused flow droplet generators are widely used in microfluidics to generate highly monodisperse droplets of various sizes. This Micronit chip offers the following features:

  • Manufactured from high-quality borosilicate glass, inert to most chemicals and biocompatible
  • Precision-etched microfluidic channels for reproducible results
  • Three nozzle sizes: 10 µm (9-20 µm droplet range), 20 µm (20-40 µm droplet range), 50 µm (40-90 µm droplet range) or 75 µm (65-140 µm droplet range)*
  • Optimized nozzle geometry: etched on both sides (oval shape), stable and highly monodisperse droplet generation
  • Uncoated (hydrophilic) for oil-in-water (O/W) droplet generation, or coated (hydrophobic) for water-in-oil (W/O) droplet generation

*Indicated reference droplet sizes are based on a reference experiment with Silicone oil 5cSt and DI water combined with 2% v/v Tween 20 or Tween 80.

These charges are determined by your local customs authority and must be paid by you upon the arrival of the shipment in your country.

We recommend contacting your local customs office for detailed information on these charges if you're ordering from outside the EU, as they can vary depending on the destination and the value of your order. Please note that these additional costs are not included in the shipping fees charged by Darwin Microfluidics.

Since Darwin Microfluidics sells exclusively to companies and institutions and is based in France, the VAT treatment for your orders depends on the location of your company or institution:

Within the EU (excluding France): For customers in other EU countries, the reverse charge mechanism applies. This means that VAT is not charged by us at the point of sale. Instead, it is your responsibility to account for the VAT at the standard rate applicable in your country under the reverse charge procedure. This process helps simplify cross-border transactions within the EU.

In France: For customers located in France, standard French VAT rates apply to all purchases. As a France-based company, we are required to charge VAT on sales to other French companies and institutions, which you can then reclaim according to local VAT procedures if applicable.

Outside the EU: For customers outside the European Union, sales are not subject to VAT by us. However, you may be subject to import duties, taxes, and charges that are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility and vary by country. We advise checking with your local customs office for more information.

Please ensure your VAT identification number is provided during the ordering process for EU transactions to qualify for the reverse charge mechanism. If you have any questions regarding VAT charges or need further assistance with VAT-related issues, please contact our customer service team.

We are unable to provide specific estimates for customs fees, duties, or taxes associated with your order. These charges are determined by the customs authority in your country and can vary based on a variety of factors, including the type of items purchased, their value, and the country to which they are being shipped.

We recommend contacting your local customs office directly to get the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding potential customs charges for your order. They can provide you with detailed guidelines on the fees you might expect to pay based on the products you're importing from us.

Please remember, these charges are the responsibility of the recipient and are not included in the shipping costs paid to Darwin Microfluidics.
