Applying Large language models (LLMs) within specific domains requires substantial adaptation to account for the unique terminologies, nuances, and context-specific challenges inherent to those areas. Here, we introduce DropMicroFluidAgents (DMFAs), an advanced language-driven framework leveraging state-of-the-art pre-trained LLMs. DMFAs employs LLM agents to perform two key functions: (1) delivering focused guidance, answers, and suggestions specific to droplet microfluidics and (2) generating machine learning models to optimise and automate the design of droplet microfluidic devices, including the creation of code-based computer-aided design (CAD) scripts to enable rapid and precise design execution. Experimental evaluations demonstrated that the integration of DMFAs with the LLAMA3.1 model yielded the highest accuracy of 76.15%, underscoring the significant performance enhancement provided by agent integration. This effect was particularly pronounced when DMFAs were paired with the GEMMA2 model, resulting in a 34.47% improvement in accuracy compared to the standalone GEMMA2 configuration. This study demonstrates the effective use of LLM agents in droplet microfluidics research as powerful tools for automating workflows, synthesising knowledge, optimising designs, and interacting with external systems. These capabilities enable their application across education and industrial support, driving greater efficiency in scientific discovery and innovation.
