Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we developed microfluidic control systems for generation of liposomes (artificial cell-membrane vesicles), control of chemical reactions in artificial cell-like vesicles, and molecular interaction between artificial cell-like vesicles. In the study of the generation of liposomes, we developed a centrifugal capillary-based microfluidic device. We demonstrated that the centrifugal capillary-based microfluidic device could generate cell-sized monodisperse liposomes. In the study of the control of chemical reactions, we demonstrated a chemical rhythm reaction could be controlled based on computer-aided fusion and fission of microdroplet-based artificial cell-like vesicles. By extending this method, we demonstrated the interaction between microdroplet-based artificial cell-like vesicles.
