Generating nanoliter to femtoliter microdroplets with ease
In this letter, we present a simply constructed and easy-to-use fluidic device that generates arrayed aqueous phase microdroplets in oil of controlled size with volumes ranging from nanoliter to femtoliter without surfactant. This can be applicable with a range of materials, allowing production and...

Zusammenfassung: | In this letter, we present a simply constructed and easy-to-use fluidic device that generates arrayed aqueous phase microdroplets in oil of controlled size with volumes ranging from nanoliter to femtoliter without surfactant. This can be applicable with a range of materials, allowing production and storage of monodisperse microdroplets. We illustrate the potential of our methodology in the field of nanoparticle generation |
