Research / Research focus

The Microfluid Biotechnique Research Group is focused on the development of microfluid devices, sensors and optimization of microfluid screening processes, cultivation and characterization of

  • Soil Microorganisms,

  • Photosynthesis-active microorganisms (cyanobacterium, algae) and

  • Plant cell cultures (microspores, protoplasts)

Induction of embryogenic development in haploid microspore stem cells in droplet-based microfluidics

In a recently published study, together with University Freiburg, TU Ilmenau and Company ScreenSys, we did studies of droplet-based microfluidics for application in plant cells. Here, we present our droplet-based tube system suitable for implementation in an automated, miniaturized system with a microchannel as the central transport and processing unit to achieve induction of embryogenic development in haploid stem cells.
