Figure 6

Clay distribution in ATPS having reverse volume ratio. For 20%/20% w/w PEG 8 kDa-Dx 10 kDa using volume ratio of 1:20 PEG-rich phase: Dx-rich phase with (A) Kaolinite (KGa-2), (B) Na-rich montmorillonite (SWy-2), (C) Ca-rich montmorillonite (STx-1b) and (D) NX-illite. Labeled Dx (red, 2 μM final concentration) and labeled PEG (green, 2 μM final concentration) have been used for fluorescence imaging. Left-hand images show transmitted light, and right-hand images show overlay of red and green confocal fluorescence channels. Continuous phase is Dx-rich phase while droplets are PEG-rich phase.
