Zusammenfassung:A microfluidic structure for spacing out and aligning entities in an aqueous suspension is provided. The structure comprises: a channel for guiding entities in an aqueous suspension; a first comb of first inlets arranged on a first side of the channel for introducing a spacing medium into the channel; and a second comb of second inlets arranged on a second side of the channel for introducing the spacing medium into the channel; wherein the first side is opposite the second side, and wherein one of the first inlets has a corresponding, respective one of the second inlets at a substantially similar longitudinal position along the channel.
