Release of Encapsulated Content in Microdroplets

Analytical Sciences, 2011
A method for releasing the content of microdroplets by changing the channel wall wettability is proposed. The contents of aqueous droplets were released to the continuous phase by inverting 10-µm-sized W/O droplets into O/W ones in a 2-µm-deep hydrophilic channel. The combination of "encapsulation" and "release" in microdroplets facilitates micromixing

High‐Density E. Coli Cultivation Arrays for Combinatorial Drug Testing With Subsequent Lipid Profiling by MALDI‐MS

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
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

Localized 3D acoustic streaming in microdroplets using high‐frequency micro‐beam IDTs

Droplet, EarlyView.
Miniaturized 160 MHz acoustic microbeam transducers, with a size much smaller than droplets, enable precise localized actuation, generating complex three‐dimensional streaming and tunable particle aggregation. This concept provides high‐resolution, non‐contact fluid manipulation for biosensing, lab‐on‐chip diagnostics, and targeted drug screening ...

Research Progress of Three‐Terminal Perovskite/Silicon Tandem Solar Cells Based on Back‐Contact Silicon

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells offer efficiencies beyond 30%, yet conventional architectures face trade‐offs between optical performance and current matching. Three‐terminal tandems employing silicon back‐contact bottom cells eliminate the current‐matching constraint while minimizing optical losses, offering superior energy yield under real ...
