    Abstract: In certain embodiments, the invention provides methods and devices for assaying single particles in a population of particles, wherein at least two parameters are measured for each particle. One or more parameters can be measured while the particles are in the separate reaction volumes. Alternatively or in addition, one or more parameters can be measured in a later analytic step, e.g., where reactions are carried out in the separate reaction volumes and the reaction products are recovered and analyzed. In particular embodiments, one or more parameter measurements are carried out “in parallel,” i.e., essentially simultaneously in the separate reaction volumes.

    Abstract: The present invention provides microfabricated fluidic systems and methods. Microfabricated fluidic devices of the present invention include switches that can be opened and closed to allow or block the flow of fluid through a channel in response to the pressure level in a gate of the switch. The microfabricated fluidic switches may be coupled together to perform logic functions and Boolean algebra, such as inverters, AND gates, NAND, gates, NOR gates, and OR gates. The logic gates may be coupled together to form flip-flops that latch signals. The present invention also includes microfabricated fluidic pressure multipliers that increase the pressure in a second chamber relative to a first chamber. Microfabricated fluidic devices of the present invention also include pressure sources. A pressure source of the present includes a pump coupled to a reservoir through unidirectional valves. The pressure source may be high pressure source or a low pressure source. Microfabricated fluidic devices of the present invention may also include devices that perform analog functions such as switching regulator.

    Abstract: Described herein are methods useful for incorporating one or more adaptors and/or nucleotide tag(s) and/or barcode nucleotide sequence(s) one, or typically more, target nucleotide sequences. In particular embodiments, nucleic acid fragments having adaptors, e.g., suitable for use in high-throughput DNA sequencing are generated. In other embodiments, information about a reaction mixture is encoded into a reaction product. Also described herein are methods and kits useful for amplifying one or more target nucleic acids in preparation for applications such as bidirectional nucleic acid sequencing. In particular embodiments, methods of the invention entail additionally carrying out bidirectional DNA sequencing. Also described herein are methods for encoding and detecting and/or quantifying alleles by primer extension.

    Abstract: This invention relates to methods for capturing and encoding nucleic acid from a plurality of single cells. A plurality of solid supports is randomly placed into a plurality of compartments, such that the average number of solid supports per compartment, λ1, is less than 1, wherein each solid support carries (a) a unique identification sequence and (b) a capture moiety. A plurality of single cells is randomly placing into the plurality of compartments, such that the average number of cells per compartment, λ2, is less than 1. These random placement steps may be performed in any order. Nucleic acid is then released from each single cell and captured via the capture moiety, such that nucleic acid from each single cell is tagged with a unique identification sequence.
