Impedance-Based Single-Cell Pipetting

Philippe Renaud, Yann Barrandon, David Vincent Bonzon, Jean-Baptiste Bureau, Georges Muller, Nicolas Jean Bernard Beuchat, Nicolas Uffer

Many biological methods are based on single-cell isolation. In single-cell line development, the gold standard involves the dilution of cells by means of a pipet. This process is time-consuming as it is repeated over several weeks to ensure clonality. Here ...

Traceable Impedance-Based Dispensing and Cloning of Living Single Cells

Philippe Renaud, Yann Barrandon, Ariane Rochat, David Vincent Bonzon, Stéphanie Claudinot, Georges Muller

Single-cell cloning is essential in stem cell biology, cancer research, and biotechnology. Regulatory agencies now require an indisputable proof of clonality that current technologies do not readily provide. Here, we report a one-step cloning method using ...

Microwell and impedance-based approaches to isolate single cells for life sciences

Georges Muller

Cellular heterogeneity is ubiquitous in any cell population. Understanding these variations is key to answering fundamental questions in immunology, developmental biology, cancer or stem cell biology. For instance, single-cell in vitro and in vivo assays h ...
