FluoSurf-S™ is a high-performance fluorinated surfactant designed and optimized to stabilize aqueous droplets in fluorinated oils for chemical or biotechnological applications. FluoSurf-S™ is an inert block copolymer designed to stabilize droplets containing biological compounds. It is suitable for droplet-based microfluidic experiment such as droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) and single cell analysis. FluoSurf-S™ is particularly efficient for stabilizing droplets during thermocycling even in extreme conditions.

Key Features:

Stability: FluoSurf-S™ allows the stabilization of droplets from 1 to 300μm with a high generation frequency and keeps droplets stable during heating cycles.
Biocompatibility: FluoSurf-S™ is biocompatible and can be used to stabilize droplets containing biochemical compounds or biological entities.
Purity: FluoSurf-S™ is obtained with a high purity.
Leakage control: Hydrophilic and hydrophobic molecules can be efficiently contained within droplets
Reproducibility: Each batch is tested for structure and performance following strict quality control specifications. A certificate of analysis can be delivered for each batch and is available on the website.
