Smart Fluorosurfactant‐Assisted Microfluidics Powered On‐Demand Generation and Retrieval of Cell‐Laden Microgels

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A novel class of thermo‐responsive surfactants is developed for stabilizing and on‐demand demulsifying water‐in‐oil droplets in microfluidic systems. These surfactants enable temperature‐triggered recovery of cell‐laden hydrogel microgels without chemical demulsifiers. The approach offers a biocompatible and scalable solution for applications in tissue
