Best Surfactants for Microfluidic Droplet Generation
Surfactants are essential in microfluidic droplet generation, where precise control over droplet formation and stability is crucial. By reducing interfacial tension and stabilizing emulsions, surfactants enable the production of uniform droplets, making them indispensable in industries such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics,...
Alternatives to Novec™ 7500 and Fluorinert™ FC-40 Oils
Fluorinated oils are indispensable in microfluidics, with applications across many fields like drug screening, digital PCR, and cell encapsulation. Their biocompatibility, gas permeability, and ability to maintain droplet stability have made them essential for cost-effective and resource-saving experiments. However, due...
Commonly Used Oils in Microfluidics for Droplet Generation
Oils are essential in microfluidic droplet generation, serving as either the continuous phase that surrounds dispersed droplets or as the dispersed phase itself, forming droplets within an aqueous medium. Their versatile properties enable precise control over droplet formation and stability....
Surfactants in Droplet Generation: A Complete Guide
Surfactants are a diverse class of compounds that play a pivotal role in reducing the surface tension between two immiscible substances, such as oil and water. This unique property makes them indispensable for stabilizing droplets during emulsification. From pharmaceuticals to...
