Hybridoma: On-chip Cell Fusion Lab in a Tube Lab on a Chip

Antibodies have been used for many different applications ranging from basic biological studies to therapeutics. For example, antibodies are used in treatments as wide ranging as cancer care, autoimmune disease therapy, and to prevent rejection of transplanted organs. This requires large quantities of antibodies, which can be supplied via hybridoma generation. Hybridomas are hybrid cell lines f...

Portable two-color in vivo flow cytometer for real-time detection of fluorescently-labeled circulating cells.

The recent introduction of the in vivo flow cytometer for real-time, noninvasive detection and quantification of cells circulating in the vasculature of small animals has provided a powerful tool for tracking the roles of different types of cells in disease progression. We describe a portable version of the device, which provides the capability to: a) excite and detect fluorescence at two disti...
