    摘要: An integrated droplet actuator device and methods are provided for performing PCR amplification and high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis on a single droplet actuator. HRM analysis can be used in combination with PCR amplification for detection of sequence variations (e.g., single-nucleotide polymorphisms, nucleotide-repeat polymorphisms, mutation scanning and assessment of DNA methylation) within one or more genes of interest. The PCR amplicons can be fluorescently labeled during amplification using a saturating DNA intercalating fluorescent dye, a 5′-labeled primer, or labeled probes. Also provided are a droplet actuator device and methods for sample preparation using the droplet actuator and detection of sequence variations on the same droplet actuator.

    摘要: A method of inoculating a culture medium including providing a droplet including a single cell type on a droplet actuator and inoculating a culture medium with the droplet. A method of providing a metabolically useful substance to a cell culture, including providing a droplet actuator including a cell culture droplet loaded thereon, the sample droplet including cells and a cell culture medium, and a second droplet comprising a metabolically useful substance. The method also includes conducting one or more droplet operations to combine the cell culture droplet with the second droplet on the droplet actuator. Related methods, droplet actuators, and systems are also provided.
