Continuous and size-dependent sorting of emulsion droplets using hydrodynamics in pinched microchannels

In this report, a microfluidic system is presented for continuous and size-dependent separation of droplets utilizing microscale hydrodynamics. The separation scheme is based on laminar-flow focusing and spreading in a pinched microchannel, referred to as "pinched flow fractionation (PFF)"...
