Pico-Break™ is used to used to gently reduce the stability of picodroplets in order to release cellular or molecular contents into an aqueous medium for subsequent processing.

Pico-Glide™ is a coating agent designed for users who manufacture their own microfluidic biochips using plasma etched glass or PDMS.

– A reliable, high-performing surfactant for droplet microfluidics

• Biocompatibility– designed for generating aqueous picodroplets in oil
• Highest droplet stability– shown by assessment of picodroplet fusion, interfacial tension and critical micelle concentration
• Stability at high temperature– demonstrated by the low level of picodroplet fusion
• Low voltage for droplet sorting– purity and quality of the surfactants enables a more efficient sorting process
• Excellent batch-to-batch reproducibility– all products undergo rigorous QC and QA testing to ensure batch consistency
• Unique and patented molecular surfactant structure – patent freedom to operate in a wide range of application areas.
• Specialist expertise and support– our team brings extensive experience and support to guide your applications
