This technique produces billions of giant unilamellar vesicles, indicating potential for improved microfluidic experiments.

To develop a method for producing large quantities of size-controlled giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) for biophysical applications.
Utilized a novel workflow called PAPYRUS for GUV assembly.
Produced over 10^9 GUVs in 70 mL of buffer within 2.5 hours.
Incorporated centrifugation and solvent exchange to concentrate GUVs for experiments.
Achieved high concentrations of GUVs, 300,000 per microliter in physiological saline.
Made GUVs predominantly under 10 μm, suitable for biological applications.
Facilitated enough output for 11 in vitro microfluidic experiments or 70 in vivo experiments within 3 hours.
