title: Continuous molecular enrichment in microfluidic systems.
abstract: Highly efficient molecular extractions in continuous flow microfluidic systems are demonstrated utilising the rapid mixing properties of biphasic segmented flow in conjunction with suspended micro-particulate adsorbents. A continuous flow technique providing potential for continual on-line sample enrichment, purification and clean-up in chemical synthesis, and sample preparation.
