On-Chip Cytometry using Plasmonic Nanoparticle Enhanced Lensfree Holography
نویسندگان
چکیده
Computational microscopy tools, in particular lensfree on-chip imaging, provide a large field-of-view along with a long depth-of-field, which makes it feasible to rapidly analyze large volumes of specimen using a compact and light-weight on-chip imaging architecture. To bring molecular specificity to this high-throughput platform, here we demonstrate the use of plasmon-resonant metallic nanoparticles to automatically recognize different cell types based on their plasmon-enhanced lensfree holograms, detected and reconstructed over a large field-of-view of e.g., ~24 mm².

Water Quality Management Using a Cost-effective and Field-portable Lensfree On-chip Microscope
We investigate the use of a high-throughput, compact and light-weight (~46grams) lensfree microscope for detection and enumeration of pathogenic waterborne parasites (e.g., Giardia Lamblia and Cryptosporidium Parvum) at lowconcentration levels. This field-portable platform operates based on lensfree inline-holography and achieves a resolution of ~1.5μm over a wide field-of-view (FOV) of ~24mm. ...
متن کاملLaser Light-field Fusion for Wide-field Lensfree On-chip Phase Contrast Microscopy of Nanoparticles
Wide-field lensfree on-chip microscopy, which leverages holography principles to capture interferometric light-field encodings without lenses, is an emerging imaging modality with widespread interest given the large field-of-view compared to lens-based techniques. In this study, we introduce the idea of laser light-field fusion for lensfree on-chip phase contrast microscopy for detecting nanopa...

متن کاملLensfree Fluorescent On-Chip Imaging of Transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans Over an Ultra-Wide Field-of-View
We demonstrate lensfree on-chip fluorescent imaging of transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) over an ultra-wide field-of-view (FOV) of e.g., >2-8 cm(2) with a spatial resolution of ∼10 µm. This is the first time that a lensfree on-chip platform has successfully imaged fluorescent C. elegans samples. In our wide-field lensfree imaging platform, the transgenic samples are excited using a...
متن کاملRapid, portable and cost-effective yeast cell viability and concentration analysis using lensfree on-chip microscopy and machine learning.
Monitoring yeast cell viability and concentration is important in brewing, baking and biofuel production. However, existing methods of measuring viability and concentration are relatively bulky, tedious and expensive. Here we demonstrate a compact and cost-effective automatic yeast analysis platform (AYAP), which can rapidly measure cell concentration and viability. AYAP is based on digital in-...
