Aqueous Two-Phase Extraction is known to be a gentle separation technique for biochemical molecules where product partitioning is fast. However, the reason for the high mass transfer rates has not been investigated, yet. Many researchers claim that the low interfacial tension facilitates the formation of very small droplets and with it a large interfacial area causing a fast partitioning. However, an experimental evidence for this hypothesis has not been published yet. In this study, the mass tr ...[more]
