METHOD FOR TRAPPING DROPLETS, MEASUREMENT CELL, AND DROPLET-TRAPPING DEVICE

摘要

A measurement cell 1 includes: a droplet guide section 3 provided to one inner wall surface of an interior space 15 and having a plurality of wells; and a trap section 2 provided to another inner wall surface and having a recessed section for capturing floating droplets. The present invention comprises: a step for pouring a fluid containing a plurality of droplets and an oil into the measurement cell 1, in a state where the trap section is positioned up and the droplet guide section is down, thereby trapping the plurality of droplets in the trap section; and a step for inverting the measurement cell and causing the plurality of droplets trapped in the trap section to be captured by the plurality of wells of the droplet guide section. The present invention makes it possible to trap droplets floating in oil at a high capture rate.
