kanzureno, not at all, I was just not at the keyboard19:00
kanzureso I hate to burst gene's bubble, but his microfluidic system that he stole from papers was designed for 4 microliters/second of flow19:02

kanzuregene.22:04
kanzuremore or less.22:04
kanzureI was looking up an old paper he referenced and kind of got lost on Google Scholar for a while22:07
kanzureit's not so much that "microfluidics" has a lot of potential (maybe it does?) but that the search terms lead to good stuff22:09
