parliament visit of the Microfluidic Valley
09/2019 - This month, BlackHole Lab launched two new products. The Educational Pack for microfabrication and microfluidics is composed of a station for microfabrication to get a fast process (less than 1 hour) without the use of solvents, using efficient and easy to use equipment and a microfluidics pack to perform experiments on the devices just freshly made. BlackHole Lab also offers a new station to work with paper microfluidics: The Xurography Kit. In this kit, both cutting and the use of a hydrophobic ink are available options for more microfabrication possibilities. The station can also be used to cut some adhesive and plastic films to create molds and chips with a simple design.
