MEA Chip
Our silicon-based, plug-and-play, nanoflow MEA chip integrates an LC column, an ESI emitter, and a post-column inlet (PCI) for enhanced results in sensitivity, reproducibility, and robustness. This allows them to be used for most mainstream proteomic studies while providing a platform for novel experiments.

Performance Highlight
Proteomics of small volumes of biological samples down to single cells has progressed rapidly. However, the sensitivity and reproducibility of ultralow flow LC-MS for proteomics remains a challenge. We developed a silicon-based, plug-and-play, nanoflow MEA chip to directly address this challenge. Our MEA chip monolithically integrates an LC column, an ESI emitter, and a post-column inlet (PCI). Employing silicon-based monolithic fabrication allows for seamless zero dead volume connections necessary for sample-limited proteomic studies. Our chip-based LC columns come with a variety of options that allow them to be used for most mainstream proteomic studies while providing a platform for novel experiments. Herein, we demonstrate that MEA chips achieve performance in small-volume bottom-up proteomics on a par with the top commercial columns while introducing novel functionalities that are not feasible with the current nanoflow LC column technologies. Our MEA chip is “more than a column”. It expands the capabilities of LC-MS and opens the door to new and exciting advancements in proteomics.
