High-Throughput Step Emulsification for the Production of Functional Materials Using a Glass Microfluidic Device
High-volume production of monodisperse droplets is of importance for industrial applications due to increased emulsion stability, precise control over droplet volumes, and the formation of periodic arranged structures. So far, parallelized microfluidic devices are limited by either their complicated channel geometry or by their chemically or thermally unstable embedding material. This study sho...
متن کاملA Microfluidic Platform for the Production of Monodisperse Ultralow Interfacial Tension Oil Droplets in Water
We present a novel microfluidic approach for the generation of monodisperse oil droplets in water with ultra-low interfacial tensions. Using an oil-water-surfactant formulation under conditions close to the microemulsion phase transition, we actively controlled the surface tension at the liquid-liquid interface within the microfluidic device in order to produce monodisperse droplets. These drop...
متن کاملMonodisperse Water-in-Oil-in-Water (W/O/W) Double Emulsion Droplets as Uniform Compartments for High-Throughput Analysis via Flow Cytometry
Here we report the application of monodisperse double emulsion droplets, produced in a single step within partially hydrophilic/partially hydrophobic microfluidic devices, as defined containers for quantitative flow cytometric analysis. Samples with varying fluorophore concentrations were generated, and a clear correlation between dye concentration and fluorescence signals was observed.
متن کاملFormation of monodisperse calcium alginate microbeads by rupture of water-in-oil-in-water droplets with an ultra-thin oil phase layer.
This paper reports a novel formation method of monodisperse calcium alginate microbeads from water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) droplets with an ultra-thin oil phase layer. W/O/W droplets containing sodium alginate in an internal aqueous phase were formed as a template of calcium alginate microbeads using a microfluidic device. The ultra-thin oil phase layer of the W/O/W droplets was ruptured by an ...
متن کاملMicrofluidic emulsification and sorting assisted preparation of monodisperse chitosan microparticles.
A microfluidic device for generating monodisperse chitosan microparticles and separating the desired particle from smaller particles created as a byproduct of this process was described. The purpose of this study is to separate the satellite droplets from their parent droplets to enhance the size uniformity of the desired microparticles. A double T-junction design was first employed to control ...
