Process and device for mixing microdroplets

In a process for mixing microdroplets (2a, 2b, 2c), at least two carriers (3a, 3b) are provided whose surfaces (4a, 4b) are each structured in such a way that at least one hydrophilic surface domain (5a, 5b) is delimited by at least one hydrophobic surface domain (6a, 6b). A first microdroplet (2a,...

Zusammenfassung:	In a process for mixing microdroplets (2a, 2b, 2c), at least two carriers (3a, 3b) are provided whose surfaces (4a, 4b) are each structured in such a way that at least one hydrophilic surface domain (5a, 5b) is delimited by at least one hydrophobic surface domain (6a, 6b). A first microdroplet (2a, 2b, 2c) is disposed on a hydrophilic surface domain (5a) of a first carrier (3a), and a second microdroplet (2a, 2b, 3c) is disposed on a hydrophilic surface domain (5b) of a second carrier (3b). The carriers (3a, 3b), with their first and second hydrophilic surfaces (4a, 4b) facing each other, are positioned adjacent to each other and sufficiently close to each other by being moved toward each other that the microdroplets (2a, 2b, 2c) come into contact with each other.
