On-chip Cytometric Detection of Single Biological Cells Using Integrated Photodiodes
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this contribution we present the principle and measurement results on cytometric detection of single biological cells using integrated photodiodes. The sensing element is built into a microfluidic flow cell that allows for positioning the cells directly over the sensor. Additionally to results with calibrated polystyrene beads we show sensor readings for yeast cells. Experiments show that those cells actually act like lenses, focusing the incoming light to the sensor.

Integrated thin-film polymer/fullerene photodetectors for on-chip microfluidic chemiluminescence detection.
We report the use of solution-processed thin-film organic photodiodes for microscale chemiluminescence. The active layer of the photodiodes comprised a 1 : 1 blend by weight of the conjugated polymer poly(3-hexylthiophene) [P3HT] and [6,6]-phenyl-C(61)-butyric acid-methylester [PCBM]--a soluble derivative of C(60). The devices had an active area of 1 mm x 1 mm, and a broad-band response from 35...
متن کاملSilicon-on-insulator shortwave infrared wavelength meter with integrated photodiodes for on-chip laser monitoring.
This paper demonstrates a very compact wavelength meter for on-chip laser monitoring in the shortwave infrared wavelength range based on an optimized arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) filter with an integrated photodiode array. The AWG response is designed to obtain large nearest neighbor crosstalk (i.e. large overlap) between output channels, which allows accurately measuring the wavelength of a...
متن کاملComparison of Two Flow Cytometric Methods for Detection of Human Invariant Natural Killer T Cells (iNKT)
Background: Invariant natural killer cells (iNKT) are an important immunoregulatory T cell subset. Currently several flow cytometry-based approaches exist for the identifi-cation of iNKT cells, which rely on using the 6B11 monoclonal antibody or a combina-tion of anti-Vα24 and anti-Vβ11 antibodies. Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the ability of two flow cytometry-based methods f...
متن کاملElectrophoresis System with Integrated On-chip Fluorescence Detection
A monolithic capillary electrophoresis system with integrated on-chip fluorescence detection has been microfabricated on a silicon substrate. Photodiodes in the silicon substrate measure fluorescence emitted from eluting molecules. An on-chip thin film interference filter prevents excitation light from inhibiting the fluorescence detection. A transparent conducting ground plane prevents the hig...
