This application note describes the method for the production of double agarose emulsions using the RayDrop double emulsion chip and Fluigent pressure-based flow controllers. Agarose microcapsules are generated with precise control of particle, core and shell size.

Following is a method for encapsulation of reagent into alginate microbeads with total control of bead formation. A droplet-based microfluidic method is used to precisely control the production of microbeads without the drawbacks of large size distribution that present other methods.

Here we present here the Lego CE system consisting of available ready-to-use electrophoretic and microfluidic modules, including pressure-based flow controllers. The instrument is coupled with a laser-induced fluorescence detector (LIF) and is demonstrated for separations of labeled oligosaccharides

Our gut-on-chip system made of BEOnChip microfluidic chips coupled to pressure controllers offers a way to control and mimic the microenvironment of in vitro cultured intestinal epithelium that is closer to the physiological state.

Many microfluidic applications are developed based on concepts relying on electrodes, exploiting the electrical properties of samples to sort or separate them, generate electro-osmotic flows, manipulate particles, perform electrochemical detection etc. One example of this is electronic paper, where the electrophoretic displacement of titanium dioxide particles in a dark hydrocarbon oil solution allows the formation of a black and white pattern with a high resolution.

The performance of three commonly used surfactants are compared at three different concentrations. The droplet stability over time and the droplet occupation rate is determined by encapsulating a microbial community derived from human skin.

In this Application Note, PLGA nanoparticles with high monodispersity are generated using the Raydrop single emulsion developed and manufactured by Secoya, and Fluigent pressure-based flow controllers. The ability to synthesise PLGA nanoparticles in a more controllable and reproducible way creates possibilities to tailor surface properties and increase fields of application.
