Microfluidic kit-on-a-lid: a versatile platform for neutrophil chemotaxis assays.
Improvements in neutrophil chemotaxis assays have advanced our understanding of the mechanisms of neutrophil recruitment; however, traditional methods limit biologic inquiry in important areas. We report a microfluidic technology that enables neutrophil purification and chemotaxis on-chip within minutes, using nanoliters of whole blood, and only requires a micropipette to operate. The low sampl...
متن کاملA Review on Angiogenesis and Its Assays
Angiogenesis or formation of new blood vessels from preexisting vasculature is a key process in some physiological conditions such as wound healing, growth, and action of female reproductive organs. Moreover, disturbance of the mechanisms of physiological angiogenesis has a role in pathogenesis of some diseases in the form of overproliferation of blood vessels such as cancers, psoriasis, arthri...
متن کاملEvaluation of a commercial radioisotopic kit for folate assays.
A commercial kit for the radioisotopic assay of folate in serum, the Bio-Rad 'Quanta Count' folate kit, produced lower results than the Lactobacillus casei microbiological assay method. Its normal range was 2-0-13-0 microng/l and the reproducibility was similar to that of the microbiological assay method. The kit was also satisfactory for whole bood folate assays. The cost requires careful cons...
متن کاملSelf-contained, Integrated Biochip System for Sample-to-Answer Genetic Assays
Microfluidics-based biochip devices are developed to perform DNA analysis from complex biological sample solutions. Microfluidic mixers, valves, pumps, channels, chambers, heaters, and DNA microarray sensor are integrated to perform magnetic bead-based rare cell capture, cell preconcentration and purification, cell lysis, polymerase chain reaction, DNA hybridization and electrochemical detectio...
متن کاملSelf-Checking Cell-Based Assays for GPCR Desensitization and Resensitization.
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play stimulatory or modulatory roles in numerous physiological states and processes, including growth and development, vision, taste and olfaction, behavior and learning, emotion and mood, inflammation, and autonomic functions such as blood pressure, heart rate, and digestion. GPCRs constitute the largest protein superfamily in the human and are the largest t...
