The prospect of novel therapeutic approaches has renewed the current interest in the fusion of rare cells, like stem cells or primary immune cells. While conventional techniques are only capable of mass fusion, lab-on-a-chip systems often still lack an acc ...
Since stem cells have the unique ability to produce more of themselves (i.e. to "self-renew") and to generate specialized tissue cells, they are an ideal source of cells for regenerative medicine and in vitro tissue models. In order to fully exploit this p ...
We report a reliable strategy to perform automated image cytometry of single (non-adherent) stem cells captured in microfluidic traps. The method rapidly segments images of an entire microfluidic chip based on the detection of horizontal edges of microflui ...
Bacterial cells behave as individuals despite being genetically identical and subject to the same environment. Although the underlying mechanisms of cellular individuality are not well understood, temporal variation of gene expression and protein levels in ...
For such biomedical applications as single cell manipulation and targeted delivery of chemicals, it is important to fabricate microstructures that can be powered and controlled without a tether in fluidic environments. In this work, we describe the constru ...
A major problem in traditional cell culture methods, such as Petri dishes and culture flasks, is the very simplified artificial environment around the cells. Traditional cell culture methods lack features of the native cell niche, such as gradients and cel ...
This communication presents a novel experi- mental model for Alzheimer studies, where connected pri- mary neurons were set into subtend, co-pathological states. Cortical neurons were cultured in two separated cell com- partments in a microfluidic device. A ...
The development of atomic force microscopy (AFM) has enabled a major breakthrough in the study of individual biological objects, such as nucleic acids, proteins and protein complexes. More recently the use of AFM to investigate eukaryotic cells has been ex ...
We present the fabrication and evaluation of microdebubblers that are able to remove large bubbles while keeping a very low dead volume. The devices use a polytetrafluoroethylene membrane that is permeable to air in order to filter air bubbles out of an aq ...
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSC) are multipotent stem cells that are predominantly obtained from the bone marrow. These cells have a high ability to differentiate into a multitude of cell types, which are very attractive for tissue engineering and cell therapy ...
