Microfluidic-assisted in situ micropatterning techniques for creating various types of sortable microparticles and microcarriers. (A) Dot-patterned barcoded biomolecules generated by microfluidic in situ photo-polymerization technique [90]. (B) Color-barcoded microparticles created by electromagnetic system, dynamic mask, and in situ polymerization [91]. (C) Amphiphilic microcarriers fabricated by in situ UV polymerization filled with red dye as a model drug. Droplet wells can be formed in a variety of shapes and sizes, which allows for sorting and dose control [92].
