Summary "The book will contain two parts: the review of microfluidic devices and the methods used for controlled preparation of droplets and bubbles. the description of physical and chemical methods for solidification of such prepared droplets in situ on microfluidic chips. In the first part, the general aspects of microfluidics will be reviewed, the fabrication methods used for the production of microfluidic devices, and the applications of microfluidics. In particular, the focus will be on the physics of formation of droplets in microfluidics and the devices used for emulsification."-- Publisher's presentation
