An ultra-low consumption platform for measuring fast chemical reactions

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Here we present a new approach to pair droplets on demand without the need to flow the continuous phase to actuate droplets. We further demonstrate that rates of fast chemical reactions can be extracted from the reaction-diffusion front taking place in the drops. Finally, we show that this approach can be parallelized to perform kinetic experiments with varying substrate concentrations on a single chip.
