Siphon-Induced Droplet Break-Off for Enhanced Mixing on a Centrifugal Platform

Siphon-Induced Droplet Break-Off for Enhanced Mixing on a Centrifugal Platform

We present a powerful and compact batch-mode mixing and dilution technique for centrifugal microfluidic platforms. Siphon structures are designed to discretize continuous flows into a sequence of droplets of volumes as low as 100 nL. Using a passive, self-regulating 4-step mechanism, discrete volume...
