Micro-heater integrated temperature-controllable microfluidic tensiometer for measuring dynamic interfacial tension

摘要

A temperature-controllable microfluidic device generally extends in a first direction and is disposed along the microfluidic channel for flowing sample fluid and along the microfluidic channel, along each side of the microfluidic channel A microheater made of a resistive wire with a pair of meander-shaped portions extending substantially in the first direction, and arranged along the microfluidic channel, along the respective sides of the microfluidic channel And a temperature sensor made of a resistive wire having a pair of meander-shaped portions extending substantially in the first direction.
