Abstract

We present colosseum, a low-cost, modular, and automated fluid sampling device for scalable fluidic applications. The colosseum fraction collector uses a single motor, can be built for less than $100 using off-the-shelf and 3D-printed components, and can be assembled in less than an hour. Build Instructions and source files are available at https://github.com/pachterlab/colosseum.

Competing Interest Statement

Footnotes

  • Notations for 3D printing have been made consistent. Modified Figure 1 to include picture of collected fractions. Fixed typo "FLPC" in Discussion section. Updated BOM to include links to Aliexpress.
