Standard PDMS Chips
Polydimethylsiloxane (also known as PDMS) is the material of choice for starting most microfluidic projects. With its advantages of transparency, breathability, biocompatibility, and chemical inertness, it is ideally suited for microfluidic chip fabrication related to cell culture, drug screening, cell capture, etc. Alfa Chemistry offers a range of off-the-shelf PDMS microfluidic chips, and they are extremely cost-effective and available in a wide variety of structural options.

Advantages
The standard PDMS microfluidic chips provided by Alfa Chemistry have the following key advantages:
- The standard PDMS microfluidic chips have excellent optical transparency, which facilitates imaging and microscopy. For example, it allows real-time imaging and monitoring of microfluidic cell culture chambers.
- They have high resolution and fine structures. PDMS chips are typically made by pouring a liquid premix onto a master mold, and this casting process gives the chips their fine characteristics.
- They are biologically inert, which ensures their neutrality in biological applications and makes them a suitable choice for cell culture substrates. In addition, PDMS is a breathable material with diffusion coefficients of about 2000-4000 µm2/s for oxygen and 1000 µm2/s for CO2, which gives it an advantage in long-term cell cultures.
