Abstract

A method for preparing droplets using a microfluidic chip system is provided. The microfluidic chip system includes a droplet generation device, a power generation device, a collection bottle, a connection device, and a preparation platform, the droplet generation device includes a chip body, the chip body defines a continuous phase inlet for receiving a continuous phase and a dispersed phase inlet for receiving a dispersed phase. The power generation device is activated to form a pressure difference among the collection bottle, the connection device, and the chip body, wherein the pressure difference promotes the dispersed phase and the continuous phase to converge and flow into the collection bottle in form of the droplets.
