Intuitive, image-based cell sorting using optofluidic cell sorting.
We present a microfluidic cell-sorting device which augments microscopy with the capability to perform facile image-based cell sorting. This combination enables intuitive, complex phenotype sorting based on spatio-temporal fluorescence or cell morphology. The microfluidic device contains a microwell array that can be passively loaded with mammalian cells via sedimentation and can be subsequentl...
متن کاملIntegrated VCSEL Arrays for Optofluidic Sorting
We present the concept of an ultra-small, potentially low-cost microfluidic sorting unit based on vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers. The densely packed lasers are integrated with the microfluidic channel and form an optical lattice. We show first results in an experimental setup, followed by tests of the first generation of integrated setups. A promising novel integration approach and fut...
متن کاملOptical particle sorting on an optofluidic chip.
We report size-based sorting of micro- and sub-micron particles using optical forces on a planar optofluidic chip. Two different combinations of fluid flow and optical beam directions in liquid-core waveguides are demonstrated. These methods allow for tunability of size selection and sorting with efficiencies as high as 100%. Very good agreement between experimental results and calculated parti...
متن کاملCell sorting based on motility differences.
Self-propelled particles are used to simulate cell aggregates in a model considering homogeneous adhesion forces between cells and using only motility differences as segregation drivers. The tendency of cells to follow their neighbors is also included in the formulation. Three model variants are explored, and the conditions on which motility differences may produce segregation are mapped in par...
متن کاملMotility-based cell sorting by planar cell chromatography.
We report here a new methodology for sorting mammalian cells based on their intrinsic motility on planar substrates, independent of chemoattractants and external fields. This biological analogue of thin layer chromatography consists of arrays of asymmetric adhesive islands on tissue culture dishes that rectify the random movement of cells and direct their migration in a specific direction. We d...
