Functional single-cell hybridoma screening using droplet-based microfluidics.
Monoclonal antibodies can specifically bind or even inhibit drug targets and have hence become the fastest growing class of human therapeutics. Although they can be screened for binding affinities at very high throughput using systems such as phage display, screening for functional properties (e.g., the inhibition of a drug target) is much more challenging. Typically these screens require the g...
متن کاملTeaching single-cell digital analysis using droplet-based microfluidics.
Microfluidics allows the manipulation of small quantities of reagents in a high-throughput manner and is therefore highly amenable to single cell characterization and more generally to digital analysis, with applications in fields as varied as genomics, diagnostics, directed evolution, and drug screening. The growing place of microfluidics in biology laboratories encouraged us to develop a ...
متن کاملDroplet-based pyrosequencing using digital microfluidics.
The feasibility of implementing pyrosequencing chemistry within droplets using electrowetting-based digital microfluidics is reported. An array of electrodes patterned on a printed-circuit board was used to control the formation, transportation, merging, mixing, and splitting of submicroliter-sized droplets contained within an oil-filled chamber. A three-enzyme pyrosequencing protocol was imple...
متن کاملDroplet microfluidics for high-throughput biological assays.
Droplet microfluidics offers significant advantages for performing high-throughput screens and sensitive assays. Droplets allow sample volumes to be significantly reduced, leading to concomitant reductions in cost. Manipulation and measurement at kilohertz speeds enable up to 10(8) samples to be screened in one day. Compartmentalization in droplets increases assay sensitivity by increasing the ...
متن کاملDroplet-based microfluidics for artificial cell generation: a brief review.
Artificial cells are best defined as micrometre-sized structures able to mimic many of the morphological and functional characteristics of a living cell. In this mini-review, we describe progress in the application of droplet-based microfluidics for the generation of artificial cells and protocells.
