Micronano

International MicroNanoConference

Workshops

The organization of the International MicroNanoConference 2016 is proud to present three hands-on workshop on promising new technological areas:

– Organ-on-a-Chip
– Photonics, Microscopy and Spectroscopy
– Bubbles and Droplets, innovative liquid handling in life sciences & diagnostics

During these demo setups, the exhibited instruments will be accessible for the visitors to experience first hand the working of the equipment.
Below an overview of the workshops and participating companies and institutes.

It’s still possible to join in with a demo setup. Please contact the organisation for more information: susanne@fhi.nl (Susanne van Boxtel, Project Manager)

Tuesday morning dec. 13 there’s also a workshop on Microfluidic Standardization where the important results of the European MFM initiative for the standardization of complex micro-fluidic devices manufacturing will be discussed.

Microfluidic Standardization

13 dec. 14.00 – 15.30 hrs.

CEA LETI, Micronit, Philips, PhoeniX Software and TNO will jointly host a Microfluidics Manufacturing workshop on the first day of the conference. In this workshop important results will be presented from the European MFM initiative for the standardization of complex micro-fluidic devices manufacturing.

The objective of the Microfluidic Manufacturing project is to bring the manufacturing of microfluidic devices to the same level of maturity as electronic devices, enabling them to address more widely in the healthcare needs. The MFM initiative invites  microfluidic experts to give feedback and to actively participate in further standardization efforts.

 Organ-on-a-Chip

13 dec. 14.00 – 15.30 hrs.

The Organ-on-a-Chip Technology makes it possible to closely mimic human tissue and organs in vivo. This will primarily meet the need for representative human test model systems for drug development and other applications, and as an additional goal will reduce, refine and replace the use of animal experiments.

During the Organ-on-a-Chip workshop the latest technologies and applications will be presented with live demo-setups, accompanied by the involved researchers and developers.

The following companies and institutes will be present:

organsonchips
  • Delft University of Technology (group Ronald Dekker) with the Cytostretch technology, a universal platform for organ-on-chip applications  (a hDMT member)
  • Eindhoven University of Technology (group Jaap den Toonder) with microfluidic devices to understand the various stages in the development of cancer, Cancer-on-a-Chip (a HDMT member)
  • University of Twente (group Andries van der Meer) with their technological innovations they have developed in order to more realistically mimic and analyze blood vessels in organs-on-chips (a hDMT member)
  • Micronit Microtechnogies with a co-development together with Fluigent that has resulted in a 4-dock Organ-on-a-Chip system with a pump and flow-rate control integrated.
  • Denz BIO-Medical offers a wide range of services and production processes for microsystems, bio-microsystems and bio-medical systems. They support customers with their standard chips fabricated out of various materials and for a host of applications.

Photonics, Microscopy and Spectroscopy

14 dec. 10.45 – 12.15 hrs.

  • Confocal.nl, will demonstrate their Re-scan Confocal Microscope (RCM) which has an improved resolution and strongly improved sensitivity as compared to most confocal microscopes.
  • LioniX develops full optofluidic systems based on their core technology. The miniaturized rotary valve is an essential part of that and the combination with the optofluidic platform of LioniX, based on the silicon nitride technology (TriPleX), yields a very powerful fluidic measurement system. The workshop will show a demonstrator of an optofluidic sensing system with integrated automated fluidic handling.
  • PhenomWorld with their Phenom XL desktop scanning electron microscope. No SEM specialist is required to operate the system, basic operations can be taught to anyone within 15 minutes
  • TNO will demonstrate a desktop unit for optical biosensing. This unit allows the user to establish a robust multi-channel optical connection to an optical biosensor chip (based on Silicon On Insulator ring resonators) with a flow cell. The user can then perform bio-chemical tests by supplying various liquid samples to the sensor. Any lab analist can learn to work with this unit in 30 minutes, and exchange samples within a few minutes.

Bubbles and Droplets
Innovative liquid handling in Life Sciences & Diagnostics

14 dec. 13.30 – 15.00 hrs

Droplets01

  • Dolomite, is specialized in the design and manufacture of high quality innovative microfluidic products and offers a broad range of modular microfluidic systems, modules and components such as pumps, chips, connectors, temperature controllers, sensors, accessories and software for analysis or automation.
  • Fluigent develops, manufactures and commercializes innovative fluid handling solutions for a variety of rapidly growing applications where fluid control is critical. Fluigent has delivered MFCS™ (Microfluidic Flow Control Systems) to hundreds of customers worldwide since 2006. During the demo participants will be able to ” draw” the Dutch flag with 3 liquids (co-flow cell) to illustrate the reactivity of pressure pumps.
  • Scienion – specialist in the field of small volume dispensing of any biological and chemical substance –will be present with a mid-size arrayer that is used for dispensing ultra-small volumes of liquid in the pico- to nano-liter range. Aim is to use substrates made available by the other demonstrators Dolomite and Fluigent. The audience is welcome to bring their own substrates to dispense on!
