Streamlining RNA-LNP & nanoparticle manufacturing

Once your RNA and lipids are ready, TAMARA enables the reproducible formulation of RNA-LNPs from early screening to preclinical studies. Built for formulation R&D, it combines:

1

1 µg to 5 mg of encapsulated RNA per run

2

A reusable microfluidic chip with two mixer designs on one reversible chip

3

Zero formulation losses, >90% RNA recovery

What can TAMARA do?

Whether you're screening lipid formulations or exploring different payload options, TAMARA adapts to your needs.

Consistency by design

Your LNP stays the same as you scale up

With TAMARA, a single instrument carries your formulation across the entire R&D workflow. Because the chip, the mixer and the process stay identical from a 0.2 mL screen to a 30 mL preclinical batch, your nanoparticle keeps the same size, PDI and encapsulation efficiency at every scale — so your in vivo readouts reflect the biology, not a change of instrument.

Microfluidic technology

The technology behind the speed

Microfluidic mixing is the reference method for RNA-LNP formulation. It allows for:

  • Best size control and reproducibility through flow condition control (TFR & FRR)
  • High encapsulation efficiency (EE >95%)
  • Excellent in vitro & in vivo performance
  • Accurate formulation from µL to mL volumes
Herringbone mixer

Fastest mixing for the smallest LNPs. Gold standard in RNA-LNP formulation.

Baffle mixer

Robust secondary-flow design for broader flexibility.

Two minutes to understand TAMARA

An intuitive 3-step process, even for a first-time user. It's that simple.

01Step one
Set

Choose your mixer and set the flow conditions for your target LNP.

02Step two
Pipette

Load your RNA and lipid phases directly — no priming, no dead volume.

03Step three
Run

Start the run and recover your RNA-LNPs, reproducibly, in minutes.

Efficiency

Make the most of every microgram

Once your RNA is ready, every microgram counts. TAMARA's chip design avoids the dead-volume losses common to single-use systems, recovering more than 90% of your input RNA.

Reusable chips, cleaned between runs with a built-in protocol, also remove the recurring cost of disposable cartridges.

It's only through daily use that the true value of a machine becomes apparent. When PhD students consistently gravitate toward one device while overlooking others, it speaks volumes. TAMARA is in high demand — an endorsement in itself.
