FluoroSurfactants in Solutions

008-FluoroSurfactant dissolved in common fluorinated oils (e.g. HFE7500, FC40).

***NEW*** Inquire with us about alternatives to Novec (HFE) and Fluorinert (FC) oils! RAN Biotech is introducing proprietary “FO” oil series for microfluidic device priming, droplet generation and droplet stabilization (FO-001, FO-101, and FO-111).

Sample size, choice of oil and surfactant concentration vary, depending on customer requests. Most commonly, solutions are supplied as 2 weight % or 5 weight % either in HFE7500 or FC40; and more recently in the new green FO oil series:

50g of 2 weight % 008-FluoroSurfactant in HFE7500 (cat#: 008-FluoroSurfactant-2wtH-50G)
50g of 2 weight % 008-FluoroSurfactant in FC40 (cat#: 008-FluoroSurfactant-2wtF-50G)
500g of 2 weight % 008-FluoroSurfactant in HFE7500 (cat#: 008-FluoroSurfactant-2wtH-500G)
500g of 2 weight % 008-FluoroSurfactant in FC40 (cat#: 008-FluoroSurfactant-2wtF-500G)
20g of 5 weight % 008-FluoroSurfactant in HFE7500 (cat#: 008-FluoroSurfactant-5wtH-20G)
20g of 5 weight % 008-FluoroSurfactant in FC40 (cat#: 008-FluoroSurfactant-5wtF-20G)
200g of 5 weight % 008-FluoroSurfactant in HFE7500 (cat#: 008-FluoroSurfactant-5wtH-200G)
200g of 5 weight % 008-FluoroSurfactant in FC40 (cat#: 008-FluoroSurfactant-5wtF-200G)

Gel beads

FunGelBeads^TM, Barcode Gel Beads

Gel beads that can be barcoded, dissolvable, superparamagnetic and/or customized for size and functionality (sequencing adapters, custom capture sequences, oligo dT, UMI, …). These gel beads are used in proven technologies such as InDrop, Drop-Seq, Seq-Well, CEL-seq, Single-Cell RNA sequencing, …. The mechanical properties of these beads support their use in conventional microfluidics, wells and particle-templated emulsion processes and can be adapted to custom workflows.
