Hello Chris,

I have no other information on moulding of micro-structures other
than that it may not be the right process for your purposes. Have you
heard about embossing yet? Here are the ones to ask, especially for
microfluidic structures (don't ask me):

Jenoptic Mikrotechnik
Prüssingstr. 41
07745 Jena
Germany

Manager:
Lutz Müller
Phone: (0)3641- 65 - 3182

Marketing (english speaking):
Hartmut Blum
Phone: (0)3641 - 65 - 3338

Fax:  (0)3641 - 65 - 3562

This is a recommendation from Mr. Dieter Stolze, who I asked about
the matter.

Sincerely yours,
Ralf Longwitz.
