Abstract: Single-sided optoelectrowetting (SSOEW)-configured substrates are provided, as well as microfluidic devices that include such substrates. The substrates can include a planar electrode, a photoconductive (or photosensitive) layer, a dielectric layer (single-layer or composite), a mesh electrode, and a hydrophobic coating. Fluid droplets can be moved across the hydrophobic coating of such substrates in a light-actuated manner, upon the application of a suitable AC voltage potential across the substrate and the focusing of light into the photoconductive layer of the substrate in a location proximal to the droplets. Walls can be disposed upon the substrates to form the microfluidic devices. Together the walls and substrate can form a microfluidic circuit, through which droplets can be moved.

Abstract: Methods are described herein for screening an antibody producing cell within a microfluidic environment. The antibody producing cell may be a B cell lymphocyte, which may be a memory B cell or a plasma cell. An antigen of interest may be brought into proximity with the antibody producing cell and binding of the antigen by an antibody produced by the antibody producing cell may be monitored. Methods of obtaining a sequencing library from an antibody producing cell are also described.

Abstract: In situ-generated microfluidic isolation structures incorporating a solidified polymer network, methods of preparation and use, compositions and kits therefor are described. The ability to introduce in real time, a variety of isolating structures including pens and barriers offers improved methods of micro-object manipulation in microfluidic devices. The in situ-generated isolation structures may be permanently or temporarily installed.

Abstract: Methods of expanding T lymphocytes in a microfluidic device are provided. The methods can include introducing one or more T lymphocytes into a microfluidic device; contacting the one or more T lymphocytes with an activating agent; and perfusing culture medium through the microfluidic device for a period of time sufficient to allow the one or more T lymphocytes to undergo at least one round of mitotic cell division. The expansion can be non-specific or antigen-specific. T lymphocytes produced according to the disclosed methods are also provided, along with methods of treating cancer in a subject. The methods of treating cancer can include isolating T lymphocytes from a tissue sample obtained from the subject; expanding the isolated T lymphocytes in a microfluidic device; exporting the expanded T lymphocytes from the microfluidic device; and reintroducing the expanded T lymphocytes into the subject.
