General scheme of the experimental setup. Two peristaltic pumps are used to pump ferroin and sucrose solution from their corresponding reservoirs. The mixture of both fluids occurs in a Y-shaped bifurcation and after that, the mixture enters the PDMS geometry that is illuminated with a LED. There, the flow is registered by a CCD camera. Finally, the mixture exits to a third reservoir.
