IISc develops technique to encapsulate tiny droplets used for cell cultureAt the Indian Institute of Science, researchers devised a pioneering method using capillary forces to encapsulate liquid droplets for various applications. This technique involves coating droplets with a composite shell, allowing precise control over shell thickness and accommodating droplets of different sizes. Lead by Prosenjit Sen, the team achieved reduced evaporation rates by up to 200 times, extending droplets' lifespans significantly.

IISc scientists develop novel technique to encapsulate liquid droplets used for various applicationsIISc scientists have developed a new capillary force-assisted cloaking method to trap droplets within colloidal particles and liquid-infused surfaces. Droplets are used for various applications, such as in microreactors, drug delivery systems, in single crystal growth and cell culture platforms.
