	Dolomite Develops Droplet Generation Chipset Dolomite has developed a new chipset that enables the rapid and controllable generation of monodispersed droplets. This droplet generation technology has the potential to accelerate drug discovery and enable novel materials fabrication. We are able to precisely control channel dimensions and surface properties, achieving droplet volumes in the picolitre to nanolitre range. Single flow junctions can readily yield droplet generation rates of 1000 droplets per second. Higher rates can be realized by multiplexing a number of flow junctions onto a single device. More info..	Dolomite's Microfluidic Technology Enables Nanoparticle Synthesis Dolomite have announced that they have been working with Newcastle University as part of a project to explore the application of microfluidics to the synthesis of nanoparticles for use in biochemisty. For this project Dolomite created custom glass microchips with multiple reaction chambers that were used to create the nanoparticles. By undertaking these experiments, Newcastle are exploring, how in the future, scientists will be able to control specific chemical reactions in a localised microchip environment, enabling different nanoparticles to be designed for a specific purpose e.g the synthesis of silicon-based fluorescent nanoparticles (quantum dots) to label biomolecules ....

	We will be exhibiting our microfluidic design and fabrication services for chemistry and life sciences at μTAS 2008. The 12th International Conference for Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences is being held at the Sheraton Hotel & Marina, San Diego, CA, USA, October 12-16, 2008. “μTAS is a very important event for us” said Mike Hawes, Head of Marketing for Dolomite. “Microfluidic technology has a significant role to play in chemistry and life sciences and μTAS is the ideal platform to demonstrate Dolomite’s market leading innovation and strength in this area.” The μTAS conference is the premier international forum for reporting advances in microfluidic systems, nanotechnology, and chemical and biological analysis, synthesis, and detection methods for chemistry and the life sciences. Dolomite will be exhibiting from Booth 25 at the show.
