A simple approach to a microfluidic device is described. The device is composed of flexible tubing and a needle inserted orthogonal to the long axis of the tubing. This design is well suited to creating oil-water interfaces allowing the formation of laminar flows and monodisperse emulsions. The system is characterized by mapping the phases observed as a function of organic phase flow and Reynolds number. In addition, the device allows interfacial polymerization reactions to capture low coefficient of variation capsules. The shell structure and surface are examined by scanning electron microscopy.
描述了一种微流控装置的简单方法。该装置由柔性管和与管的长轴正交插入的针组成。这种设计非常适合创建油水界面，从而允许形成层流和单分散乳液。该系统的特征在于绘制观察到的相作为有机相流量和雷诺数的函数。此外，该装置允许界面聚合反应捕获低变异系数的胶囊。通过扫描电子显微镜检查壳结构和表面。
