Zusammenfassung:A microfluidic device comprises first and second inlet passages (13) for respective immiscible fluids, these inlet passages merging into a third passage (8) along which the two fluids flow under parallel laminar flow conditions, the third passage being formed with a constriction or other discontinuity (9) causing the two fluids to form into a flow of alternate segments. L'invention concerne un dispositif microfluidique comprenant des premier et second passages d'entrée (13) destinés à des fluides non miscibles correspondants. Ces passages d'entrée fusionnent dans un troisième passage (8) le long duquel les deux fluides s'écoulent dans des conditions d'écoulement laminaire parallèle. Le troisième passage est formé avec un étranglement ou toute autre discontinuité (9) poussant les deux fluides à former un flux de segments alternés.
