Abstract

Droplet merging is an important part of droplet manipulation approaches. Droplet merging methods with expansions inside channels can merge droplets in pairs through simple structures. However, they have a low success rate of merging under unstable fluidic conditions since the one-to-one pairing strategy is sensitive to fluctuation. This study presents a one-to-a-cluster pairing strategy to improve the success rate of merging under fluctuation. The one-to-a-cluster method was suitable for digital analysis and droplet MDA was performed in merged droplets successfully.
