Miniaturisation for chemistry, physics, biology and bioengineering

Issue 14 has arrived, featuring two critical reviews, a technical innovation and three HOT research papers that received particularly high scores at peer review.

Researchers from the Netherlands describe an electro-demulsification chip for extracting cells and polymer particles in our technical innovation. 3D microfluidic hydrodynamic focusing is used for the synthesis of monodisperse nanoscale liposomes in our HOT research paper by researches from the USA. In our second HOT research paper, scientists from the University of Michigan describe an automated dual-pore planar patch-clamp platform which enables low-noise single-channel recordings. Finally, in situ fabrication of a temperature- and ethanol-responsive smart membrane in a microchip is reported in our third HOT article by researchers from China.
