摘要:
The invention provides a device for adhering cells in a specific and predetermined position, and associated methods. The device includes a plate defining a surface and a plurality of cytophilic islands that adhere cells, isolated by cytophobic regions to which cells do not adhere, contiguous with the cytophilic islands. The islands or the regions or both may be formed of a self-assembled monolayer (SAM).

摘要:
Methods and a device are provided for adhering cells in a specific and predetermined position. The device comprises a plate defining a surface and a plurality of cytophilic islands that adhere cells which are isolated by cytophobic regions to which cells do not adhere. The cytophobic regions can be wide enough such that less than 10 percent of the cells adhered to the cytophilic islands are allowed to form bridges across the cytophobic regions and contact each other. Further, the islands or the regions or both may be formed of a self-assembled monolayer (SAM). The methods are for forming a patterned surface for a population of cells and for selectively manipulating individual cells formed on the surface of the plate of the device. Furthermore, the device is used in immobilization of cells at a surface and for controlling shape of the cells.

An analytical device such as a flow cytometer is provided in which a fluid sample flowing through a channel is focused into multiple, parallel particle streams by an acoustic wave field extending across the channel. Each stream is then presented to an individual detector to allow for simultaneous interrogation of the multiple streams and thus, high-throughput analysis of the fluid sample.

A lateral flow device includes a porous medium layer having a two-dimensional shape in plan view defined by one or more peripheral edges wherein the two dimensional shape includes a plurality of testing regions separated from one another by spaces between portions of the one or more peripheral edges. The porous medium layer further includes a fluid-receiving region in capillary flow communication through the porous medium layer to the testing regions.
