Cell culture multi-well plates are essential tools in biomedical research. They allow researchers to grow and study cells in a controlled environment and are widely used in drug testing, cancer research, toxicity studies, and other cell-based experiments. By enabling multiple tests in a single plate, they improve efficiency, reduce costs, and speed up experimental workflows.

At CADworks3D, we 3D-printed the master mold, cast PDMS on it, and plasma-bonded it to glass before running experiments directly in our office. This demonstrates how quickly a microfluidic device can be prototyped at the benchside in 1 day.

๐ŸŽ™๏ธOptimizing Mycelium Growth in Microfluidics

Alexandre LeBlond, a master's student in chemical engineering at McGill University, discusses one of the challenges of growing mycelium in microfluidic devices.

Finding the right process required extensive trial and error. By introducing liquid agarose into the chip after plasma bonding, the team was able to support mycelium growth throughout the microfluidic channels.

๐ŸŽ™๏ธWhere 3D Printing Goes Beyond Traditional Microfabrication

Dario Bogojevic, Doctoral Researcher Niloofar Ghasenzaie, and Graduate Researcher Stephanie McGinnity discuss how 3D printing is changing microfluidic design.

Certain structures are difficult or impossible to fabricate using traditional photolithography or soft lithography techniques, but 3D printing allows researchers to explore new designs and experimental directions.

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ3D Printing Starts with Design Decisions

Dr. Majid Warkiani from the University of Technology Sydney discusses the realities of developing microfluidic devices with 3D printing.

While 3D printing is often the first choice for rapid prototyping, researchers still need to think through fabrication strategy, print orientation, visualization requirements, and whether direct printing or PDMS molding is the better approach for the application.

We know that fabricating microfluidic devices through cleanroom processes or external services can be time-consuming, expensive, and often means waiting weeks for a single iteration. That can slow down the pace of research.

Our goal is to make rapid prototyping more accessible directly in your lab. With user-friendly 3D printing tools and compatible materials, you can design, print, and test devices in-house, reducing turnaround time and giving you more flexibility to iterate on your experiments.
