This adaptor allows you to use a Prusa Mini+ as an automated fluid sampling system.  We use this system to generate small droplets to do agglutination based diagnostics.  ie if you look how clumpy the stuff on the inside of the droplet gets you can detect how much of a particular  analyte is present.  

This droplet generating system is from my research group's publication 

Automated dynamic inlet microfluidics system: 3D printer adaptation for cost-effective, low volume, on-demand multi-analyte droplet generator.  Zia AB, Farrell J, Foulds IG.  Lab on a Chip. 2024;

Note if this wins, my PhD student Abdul Basit gets the prize.
