FACS‐Sortable Triple Emulsion Picoreactors for Screening Reactions in Biphasic Environments by Samuel Thompson, Yanrong Zhang, Zijian Yang, Lisa Nichols, Polly M. Fordyce

“…Abstract Biphasic environments can enable successful chemical reactions where any single solvent results in poor substrate solubility or poor catalyst reactivity. For screening biphasic reactions at high throughput, a platform based on microfluidic double emulsions can use widely available FACS (Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting) machines to screen millions of picoliter reactors in a few hours. …”
