Development of Droplet Microfluidics Enabling High-Throughput Single-Cell Analysis.
This article reviews recent developments in droplet microfluidics enabling high-throughput single-cell analysis. Five key aspects in this field are included in this review: (1) prototype demonstration of single-cell encapsulation in microfluidic droplets; (2) technical improvements of single-cell encapsulation in microfluidic droplets; (3) microfluidic droplets enabling single-cell proteomic an...
متن کاملInertial microfluidics in parallel channels for high-throughput applications.
Passive particle focusing based on inertial microfluidics was recently introduced as a high-throughput alternative to active focusing methods that require an external force-field to manipulate particles. In this study, we introduce inertial microfluidics in flows through straight, multiple parallel channels. The scalable, single inlet and two outlet, parallel channel system is enabled by a nove...
متن کاملMarrying structure and genomics.
Introduction Today Large-scale genome sequencing is filling up the catalogue of natural proteins at a breathtaking speed. Today, we have available not just a large number of sequences, but also glimpses of the inventory of entire organisms. This information will soon improve our understanding of cells and of life in general. Three means will contribute to this expanding body of knowledge: seque...
متن کاملHigh Throughput Single Cancer Cell Encapsulation and Self Sorting for Protease Assay by Using Jetting Microfluidics
In this work, a droplet microfluidic device integrated with droplet sorting function was presented for single cancer cell encapsulations and protease activity measurements. Individual cells were encapsulated into aqueous droplets at flow focusing junction under jetting conditions. Droplets with cells encapsulated inside are larger than other empty droplets, enabling effective droplet sorting th...
متن کاملMicrofluidics for cell-based high throughput screening platforms - A review.
In the last decades, the basic techniques of microfluidics for the study of cells such as cell culture, cell separation, and cell lysis, have been well developed. Based on cell handling techniques, microfluidics has been widely applied in the field of PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction), immunoassays, organ-on-chip, stem cell research, and analysis and identification of circulating tumor cells. As ...
