  • Publication number: 20190204266
    Abstract: An aqueous liquid medium for analyzing, purifying or separating species in an element having walls or for treating the walls of an element. The medium includes at least a polymer consisting of several polymeric segments. The polymer is of the irregular block-copolymer or irregular comb-like polymer type and has on the average at least three junction points between polymeric segments of different chemical or topological nature. The medium may be used in methods for analyzing, purifying or separating species and methods for treating an element to be contacted with a fluid and/or species contained in the fluid during preservation, transport, analysis, purification or separation of the fluid.

  • Publication number: 20090246086
    Abstract: A microfluidic network comprising a plurality of droplet emitters forming droplets of a first fluid in a second fluid immiscible in the first fluid to produce an outlet stream of droplets, wherein each of the emitters are in fluid communication with each other via the network and all have an auto-synchronised droplet formation frequency by hydrodynamic interaction between the emitters is provided. The synchronisation gives a surprisingly narrow droplet size distribution for the network.

  • Publication number: 20040101970
    Abstract: A surface treatment solution for an element designed to be contacted with a fluid and/or species contained in the fluid when the fluid is being transported, analyzed, purified, separated or preserved. The method is characterised in that the solution comprises at least a polymer consisting of several polymeric segments, the polymer being of the block copolymer type or comb-like polymer type having at least three junction points between the polymeric segments of different chemical or topological nature. The invention also concerns methods using the solution for treating an element to be contacted with a fluid and/or species contained in the fluid during preservation, transport, analysis, purification or separation of the fluid.
