What is fluidic isolation?

A. The neuron device consists of two chambers 100 um in height connected by a microgroove barrier that is 3 um in height. The hydrostatic pressure between the two chambers separated by the microgroove allows the researcher to fluidically isolate each chamber. This is accomplished by keeping the volumes in the wells on one side of the device higher then the other side of the device. The difference in volume creates hydrostatic pressure thus fluidically isolating each compartment.
