High-Density E. Coli Cultivation Arrays for Combinatorial Drug Testing With Subsequent Lipid Profiling by MALDI-MS. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)High‐throughput antibiotic cross‐gradient assays on microdroplet arrays. A multichannel printhead together with five pressure regulators forms droplet arrays of up to 20 832 droplets within 25 minutes. Each droplet contains unique concentrations of antibiotics, allowing to moniture a vast spectrum of bacterial repsonses over night. The bacterial growth

Water-Derived Radical Species Initiate Six-Electron Oxidation of Cyclic Ketones in Microdroplets. [PDF]
Angew Chem Int Ed EnglSpontaneous six‐electron oxidation of cyclic ketones to yield dicarboxylic acids/keto acids is achieved in ethanol microdroplets containing about 2% water under ambient conditions without any metal salts, acids, or oxidants. Mechanistic studies show that trace amounts of water and molecular oxygen serve as active oxidants in this transformation ...

Enhancement of solute diffusion in microdroplets using microrotors under rotational magnetic field
Scientific Reports, 2023 In vertical contact control (VCC), a microdroplet array selectively contacts with an opposite microdroplet array. Generally, VCC is useful for the dispenser mechanism based on solute diffusion between microdroplet pairs.
