Droplet Control for Microfluidics
Abstract
Future applications of microfluidic technology--in which nanoliter quantities of chemicals are processed and reacted, perhaps on an integrated chip--would immensely benefit from exquisite control of small droplets. In their Perspective, Joanicot and Ajdari discuss recent developments in droplet creation and management within microfluidic devices. New methods for microscale control, combined with better theoretical understanding, will result in precise handling of chemical processes at the single-droplet level and engineering of new materials.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
