Abstract Digital PCR (dPCR) holds immense potential for precisely detecting nucleic acid markers essential personalized medicine. However, its broader application is hindered by high consumable costs, complex procedures, and restricted multiplexing capabilities. To address these challenges, an all‐in‐one dPCR system introduced that eliminates the need microfabricated chips, offering fully automated operations enhanced Using this innovative oscillation‐induced droplet generation technique,...
This paper describes OsciDrop, a versatile chip-free droplet generator used to produce size-tunable droplets on demand. Droplet generation is fundamental miniaturized analysis. We designed OsciDrop segment the fluid flowing out of orifice disposable pipette tip into by oscillating its distal end underneath an immiscible continuous phase. described theoretical model and investigated effect flow rate, amplitude, frequency, waveform generation. Our study revealed previously underexplored Weber...
Droplet microfluidics with picoinjection provides significant advantages to multistep reactions and screenings. The T-junction design for is convenient in adding picoliter reagents into passing droplets initiate reactions. However, conventional picoinjectors face difficulties eliminating cross-contamination between droplets, preventing them from widespread use sensitive biological molecular assays. Here, we introduce stepinjection, which uses a stepped channel elevate the diffusional buffer...
ABSTRACT Droplet microfluidics is a powerful tool in many biological and clinical applications. Microfluidic chips, such as flow-focusing droplet generators, have been extensively used to high-throughput encapsulate reactions with single-cell single-molecular resolutions. However, microfabrication expensive precision-demanding, preventing it from widespread use biomedical laboratories facilities. Herein, we present versatile chip-free generator, OsciDrop, for generating size-tunable droplets...
