3D printing holds potential as a faster, cheaper alternative compared with traditional photolithography for the fabrication of microfluidic devices by replica molding. However, the influence of printing resolution and quality on device design and performance has yet to receive detailed study. Here, we investigate the use of 3D-printed molds to create staggered herringbone mixers (SHMs) with feature sizes ranging from ∼100 to 500 μm. We provide guidelines for printer calibration to ensure accurate printing at these length scales and quantify the impacts of print variability on SHM performance. We show that SHMs produced by 3D printing generate well-mixed output streams across devices with variable heights and defects, demonstrating that 3D printing is suitable and advantageous for low-cost, high-throughput SHM manufacturing.

The design of a multipurpose sample cell holder for the high-throughput (HT) beamline B21 is presented. The device is compatible with the robot bioSAXS sample changer currently installed on BM29, ESRF, and P12 Petra IV synchrotrons. This work presents an approach that uses 3D-printing to make hardware alterations which can expand the versatility of HT beamlines at low cost.

A high-throughput method for the screening of miniature mesoporous metal oxide oxidation catalysts were developed. This was achieved by using multiple robotic techniques including 3D printing. The catalysts (Co<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>, Au/Co<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>, Pd/Co<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> and Co/Mn mesoporous metal oxides) were screened for their activity towards the oxidation of morin.
