    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of detecting exosomes, including unlabeled exosomes. In some embodiments, the methods include disposing a fluidic sample that comprises a plurality of exosomes in a chamber that is positioned at least partially within a fluidic device in which an inner surface of the chamber comprises a first set of exosome binding moieties that are capable of binding the exosomes. In some embodiments, the methods also include binding a portion of the plurality of exosomes to a portion of the first set of exosome binding moieties to produce surface-bound exosomes, introducing an incident light toward the inner surface of the chamber prior to, concurrent with, and/or after, producing the surface-bound exosomes, and detecting light scattered by the surface-bound exosomes to produce a set of exosome imaging data. Related fluidic devices, systems, and computer readable media are also provided.

    Abstract: Detecting single molecules includes binding the single molecules to a surface of an optically transparent substrate, irradiating the surface of the substrate with light having an incident angle selected to achieve total reflection of the light, thereby scattering light from the surface and from the single molecules bound to the surface, and collecting light scatted by the surface and by the single molecules bound to the surface to form a series of images. Systems for detecting single molecules include an optically transparent substrate, a means for flowing a sample solution over a surface of the substrate, a light source configured to irradiate the surface, a camera, and a collection optical system configured to collect light scatted by the surface and by the target molecules on the surface to form a series of images on the camera.
