Develop a Microfluidic Device that recovers and reintroduces unpolymerized protein solution used in a Lab’s nanofabrication technique.

Project Overview

The Microfluidic Device for a Nanofabrication Apparatus Team was tasked by client Dr. Campagnola to design a device that will be used to introduce and collect multiple extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. Currently, to fabricate ECM scaffolds, the protein solution is pipetted by hand and only one component can be used at a time. However, this process is inefficient and wastes expensive proteins, as the proteins cannot be collected for re-use. Thus, the device created by the Microfluidic Device team is intended to improve and automate the process of creating tissue engineered scaffolds. Ideally, the device will be controlled by pumps linked with LABView.
