High-speed, clinical-scale microfluidic generation of stable phase-change droplets for gas embolotherapy

In this study we report on a microfluidic device and droplet formation regime capable of generating clinical-scale quantities of droplet emulsions suitable in size and functionality for in vivo therapeutics. By increasing the capillary number-based on the flow rate of the continuous outer phase-in o...
