    摘要: The devices and systems described herein include one or more fluid paths, e.g., channels, and one or more selectively permeable obstacles arranged in the fluid path(s), each including a plurality of aligned nanostructures, e.g., nanotubes or nanorods, defining an outer surface of the obstacle and an internal network of voids. The obstacle(s) can further include binding moieties applied to the outer surface and/or to the surfaces of the individual nanostructures within the obstacle(s). The devices can be manufactured by forming the dense groupings of nanostructures to extend outwards and upwards from a substrate; forming a fluidic channel, bonding the fluidic channel to the substrate; and optionally applying binding moieties to the obstacles. The devices can be used to manipulate cells within fluid samples.

    摘要: This disclosure relates to methods and devices to count particles of interest, such as cells. The methods include obtaining a fluid sample that may contain particles of interest; counting all types of particles in a portion of the sample using a first electrical differential counter to generate a first total; removing any particles of interest from the portion of the fluid sample; counting any particles remaining in the portion of the fluid sample using a second electrical differential counter after the particles of interest are removed to generate a second total; and calculating a number of particles of interest originally in the fluid sample by subtracting the second total from the first total, wherein the difference is the number of particles of interest in the sample. These methods and related devices can be used, for example, to produce a robust, inexpensive diagnostic kit for CD4+ T cell counting in whole blood samples.

    摘要: Information regarding a user may be indicative of membership in a group. Such information may be maintained for every user associated with a particular system or title. In instances, redeemable content may be offered exclusively to a group. Requests for such content may therefore be received and evaluated to determine whether the requesting user is a member of the particular group. The determination includes an evaluation of information associated with the requesting user. In some instances, the information associated with the requesting user is a user identifier that is indicative of the group membership, and the user identifier may be included in the request. If the user is indeed determined to be a member of the group, access to the redeemable content is granted. Alternatively, if the user is not determined to be a member of the group, access to the redeemable content is denied.
