The VenaFlux™ Platform is the first semi-automated microfluidic platform capable of executing cell rolling, binding/adhesion and migration studies under shear flow mimicking in vivo flow rates.

For higher throughput requirements of cell-based assays under shear flow, the VenaFlux™Platform will meet your needs. The platform includes Cellix’s patented Mirus Evo Nanopump and the iPod Touch controlled Kima pump for culturing cells under shear flow conditions together with a microscopy workstation, digital camera for image capture and image analysis software.

Ideal for:
• Functional cell-ligand and cell-cell interaction studies.
• Morphologhy analysis of cell adhesion and migration.
• Tracking of flowing, rolling and migrating cells.
• IC50 curves easily produced.
• Preclinical drug development and lead optimization.

Benefits:
• Robust and easy-to-use.
• Ideal for use with whole blood for platelet adhesion, aggregation and thrombi formation (thrombosis); bio-film culture over extended periods of time.
• Easy to study cell adhesion, migration and transmigration - more physiologically relevant than static assays
