Using Continuous Microfluidics to Explore and Build Lipid Nanostructures

Updated

Abstract

The platform can generate over 200 unique formulations of lipid nanoparticles per hour.

  • A high-throughput microfluidic platform enables rapid screening of lipid nanoparticles with precise control over composition and morphology.
  • The system integrates microfluidic metering of lipid stocks with continuous self-assembly of particles.
  • This approach results in a significant increase in throughput compared to conventional methods.
  • The platform facilitates systematic mapping of biophysical properties at an unprecedented resolution.
  • Validation of compositional trends indicates a correlation with transfection efficiency.
  • Non-lamellar formulations identified through this process show optimal functional performance.
