Fluorinated oils

Researchers widely use fluorocarbon oils as continuous phases in droplet microfluidics. They serve as efficient diluents for surfactants during droplet production and offer key advantages: chemical inertness, biocompatibility, and gas permeability. These properties make them ideally suited for biological applications.

Function: ensuring stability, biocompatibility, and reproducibility of microfluidic experiments.

Products:

Fluo-Oil 7500

Fluo-Oil 7500 is a fluorinated oil by Emulseo that serves as an alternative to Novec™ 7500 for microfluidic applications. Notably, Fluo-Oil 7500 ensures stability, biocompatibility, and reproducibility of microfluidic experiments. Furthermore, its chemical and physicochemical properties are similar to those of Novec™ 7500.

In particular, Fluo-Oil 7500 works well for solubilization of surfactant from Emulseo.

Fluo-Oil 135

Fluo-Oil 135 is another fluorinated oil which can serve as an alternative to Novec™ 7500 for microfluidic applications. Similarly, its physicochemical properties are similar to those of Novec™ 7500.

In addition, Fluo-Oil 135 works well for solubilization of stabilizer from Emulseo.
