Abstract

A connector assembly is configured to fluidly and removably connect a first set of microtubes to a second set of microtubes of a microfluidic device. The connector assembly provides multiple points of contact to the microtubes to provide a secure connection between the connector assembly and the microtubes. A single gasket provides a securely aligned connection between microtubes.
