Emulsions are two-phase systems consisting of a dispersed phase (the droplets or particles) and a continuous phase (liquid diluent like water). In the dispersed phase, droplet size is critically ...
Scientists once performed experiments in test tubes, then reduced the size of reaction volumes to fit into wells in microtiter plates. Now, RainDance Technologies plans to miniaturize reactions even ...
The ability to 3-D print liquid inks and soft materials—such as polymers, colloidal solutions, and even living cells—is useful for tissue engineering, prosthetics, and medical applications. A new oil ...
