Microfluidic device for single-cell analysis.
We have developed a novel microfluidic device constructed from poly(dimethylsiloxane) using multilayer soft lithography technology for the analysis of single cells. The microfluidic network enables the passive and gentle separation of a single cell from the bulk cell suspension, and integrated valves and pumps enable the precise delivery of nanoliter volumes of reagents to that cell. Various ap...
متن کاملERRATUM: Integrated microfluidic device for single-cell trapping and spectroscopy
Optofluidic microsystems are key components towards lab-on-a-chip devices for manipulation and analysis of biological specimens. In particular, the integration of optical tweezers (OT) in these devices allows stable sample trapping, while making available mechanical, chemical and spectroscopic analyses.
متن کاملMicrofluidic Device for Single Cell Studies of Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal Cord Injury is damage to the spinal cord due to physical trauma. Study of spinal cord injury has hardly been achieved at the single cell level. Polymer microfluidics devices may provide a unique in vitro platform for studying single neuronal responses to mechanical forces. For example, one device developed in our lab, called microchannel device, is made from poly (dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS...
متن کاملA microfluidic electroporation device for cell lysis.
We demonstrate a micro-electroporation device for cell lysis prior to subcellular analysis. Simple circuit models show that electrical lysis method is advantageous because it is selective towards plasma membrane while leaving organelle membrane undamaged. In addition, miniaturization of this concept leads to negligible heat generation and bubble formation. The designed microdevices were fabrica...
