Dolomite Offers High-Speed Imaging for Microfluidics
The Meros High Speed Digital Microscope features high-magnification optics and a zoom lens to ensure that millimeter- to micrometer-scale features can be visualized clearly, with extra-long working distance. Coupled with a high-speed USB 3.0 camera, this allows clear imaging of moving particles or cells, enabling quantitative analysis of droplet size at low flow rates—typically below 1 kHz—and qualitative evaluation at production speeds of 2–15 kHz or higher, depending on droplet size.
