  • Microfluidic device and method of using same
    Patent number: 9211537
    Abstract: A microfluidic device comprising a plurality of reaction chambers in fluid communication with a flow channel formed in an elastomeric substrate, a vapor barrier for preventing evaporation from the plurality of reaction chambers, and a continuous phase fluid for isolation of each of the plurality of reaction chambers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 7, 2008

  • Methods and Apparatus for Flow-Controlled Wetting
    Publication number: 20140208832
    Abstract: Methods of determining a first position at which a dispersed phase droplet wets a surface of a channel are provided herein. The methods include immersing the dispersed phase droplet in a continuous phase fluid, wherein the continuous phase fluid is immiscible with the dispersed phase droplet, subsequently flowing the dispersed phase droplet in the continuous phase through the channel at a dispersed phase droplet velocity, wherein the dispersed phase droplet is separated from the surface by a film of the continuous phase fluid having a film thickness, and reducing the film thickness to rupture the film at the first position, wherein the droplet wets the surface at the first position.
