12-Channel Bubble Trap

The disposable 12-Channel Bubble Trap helps to get rid of potential bubbles in your flow stream. Bubbles are a typical issue encountered in microfluidic setups and using an in-line bubble trap before your sample will ensure smooth experiments and reliable results.

The bubble trap uses a micro-porous PTFE membrane. When a fluid containing gas bubbles flows through the trap, the bubbles are expelled through the hydrophobic membrane that allows absolutely no aqueous liquid to leak. It is possible to get rid of bubbles in a fluid even with a small pressure difference across the membrane.

The liquid sample has to be pushed towards the bubble trap inlet and not aspirated from the trap outlet to avoid cavitation issues (generating bubbles).

For maximum efficiency, the bubble trap needs to be connected to the integrated vacuum pump.
