Shrinking microbubbles with microfluidics: mathematical modelling to control microbubble sizes [PDF]
Soft Matter, 2017 Microbubbles have applications in industry and life-sciences. In medicine, small encapsulated bubbles (< 10 μm) are desirable because of their utility in drug/oxygen delivery, sonoporation, and ultrasound diagnostics. While there are various techniques for generating microbubbles, microfluidic methods are distinguished due to their precise control ...
