ALA Scientific Instruments Micromanifold^®QMM

The quartz Micromanifold (QMM) utilizes a unique technology incorporating quartz microcapillaries coated with polyamide to make them flexible and damage resistant

Quartz capillaries are used to converge several perfusion inputs into a single output with a dead volume of ~ 90nL. Whether using to focally apply solution or to puff droplets of solution, a QMM allows for reproducible applications while still being low-maintenance.

Product benefits

Compatability

QMMS are compatible with ALA’s focal pressurized perfusion systems.

Robust and flexible

QMMS are made from autoclavable materials which are inert, robust, and flexible.

Easy mounting

QMMs feature manipulator holders for easy mounting onto a manipulator.

Connectivity

Standard 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, or 32 inlet ports with silicone sleeves for easy connections.

Customisable number of inlet ports

The inlets allow for quick connection to tubing via the attached silicone sleeves or via optional compression fittings.

Additional information

The convergence zone is within a silicone sleeve that holds the tip in place and is easily removed.

The precise micro-dimensions yield super fast application times when it is used as an applicator for various agents that need to be applied in rapid succession.

Connections to other tubing are via silicone adapters.

Custom variations of number and tube size are supplied at no additional cost.

Each Quartz MicroManifold® (QMM) is completely inert, durable, easy to clean, and can be mounted in any micromanipulator.

QMM’s can be used wherever tiny amounts of liquid (mL to nL volumes) need to flow together to a single output or be directed at a microtarget like an individual cell.
