    摘要: A microfluidic detection system for micrometer-sized entities, such as biological cells, includes a detector component incorporating a plate with a plurality of opening, the plate separating two chambers, one in communication with a fluid source containing target cells bound to magnetic beads. The openings are sized to always permit passage of the magnetic beads therethrough into a lower one of the chambers and are further sized to always prevent passage of the target cells from the upper one of the chambers. The detector component further includes a magnet positioned to pull unbound magnetic beads through the openings and to capture target cells bound to magnetic beads on the surface of the plate. The microfluidic detection system includes a pump flowing the fluid through the detector component at high flow rates of milliliters per minute for high throughput detection of target cells.

    摘要: A system for and method of performing multi-technique imaging are disclosed. Such multi-technique imaging system includes a surface for supporting a specimen and at least two illumination sources for producing light radiation. The system also includes a plurality of reflective and refractive devices arranged to direct at least part of the light radiation from each of the at least two illumination sources to the surface such that the at least part of the light radiation from each of the at least two illumination sources illuminates substantially the same area on the surface. The system also includes a sensor configured to receive light radiation from the at least two illumination sources reflected by the specimen and/or that pass by the specimen. The system also includes a power source configured to power the at least two illumination sources and the sensor.
