Abstract
Fluidic resistance units are provided. Fluidic resistance units of interest include a plurality of valves and a plurality of resistors, where each resistor in the plurality of resistors is fluidically coupled to and co-located with a different valve in the plurality of valves. In one embodiment, fluidic resistance units include an inlet for receiving fluid, a valve line fluidically coupled to the inlet, a resistor line fluidically coupled to the inlet, a plurality of connectors fluidically coupling the valve line to the resistor line, and an outlet for emitting fluid. Valve lines of interest include a series of fluidically coupled valves, and resistor lines of interest include a series of fluidically coupled resistors. Methods and flow cytometers involving the subject fluidic resistance units are also provided.
