Abstract
A system, including methods and apparatus, for generating droplets suitable for droplet-based assays. The disclosed systems may include (1) a droplet generation component configured to form sample-containing droplets by merging aqueous, sample-containing fluid with a background emulsion fluid such as oil, to form an emulsion of sample-containing droplets suspended in the background fluid, and (2) a droplet reservoir component configured to receive the droplet emulsion from the droplet generation component and then to be separated from the droplet generation component, so that subsequent assay steps may be conveniently performed using the droplet reservoir component. In some examples, the droplet reservoir component may be an industry standard PCR tube or a strip of interconnected PCR tubes.
