Biomolecular condensate phase diagrams with a combinatorial microdroplet platform
A central concept for characterising phase-separating systems is the phase diagram but generation of such diagrams for biomolecular systems is typically slow and low-throughput. Here the authors describe PhaseScan, a combinatorial droplet microfluidic platform for high-resolution acquisition of mult...

description | A central concept for characterising phase-separating systems is the phase diagram but generation of such diagrams for biomolecular systems is typically slow and low-throughput. Here the authors describe PhaseScan, a combinatorial droplet microfluidic platform for high-resolution acquisition of multidimensional biomolecular phase diagrams. |
