Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Aqueous two-phase system is a biphasic system formed by mixing of a polymer and salt or of two polymers in water, and one of the well-known systems is a combination of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and dextran (DEX). In this study, we developed the formation of the aqueous two-phase system in an emulsion droplet, which is a novel system. When Water-in-Oil (W/O) emulsion in which PEG and DEX were contained was prepared by the SPG membrane emulsification technique, followed by the extraction of water in the emulsion droplets, we successfully demonstrated that the aqueous two-phase system was formed in the small droplets.
