FLUORESCENCE IN SITU HYBRIDIZATION (FISH) ENHANCEMENT USING MICROFLUIDIC FLOW FOR AN ACCURATE, FAST AND ECONOMICAL ASSESSMENT OF HER2 STATUS IN BREAST CANCER

Martinus Gijs, Raphaël Etienne Jean Trouillon, Maryse Fiche, Huu Tuan Nguyen, Seiya Matsuoka

The fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is the gold standard in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status assessment in breast cancer. The dissemination of the technique is impeded by the cost of reagents and long experimental time. For ...

A microfluidic cell-trapping device for single-cell tracking of host-microbe interactions

John McKinney, Jean-Baptiste Bureau, Matthieu Jean-Hubert Delincé, Thierry Soldati

The impact of cellular individuality on host-microbe interactions is increasingly appreciated but studying the temporal dynamics of single-cell behavior in this context remains technically challenging. Here we present a microfluidic platform, InfectChip, t ...

Microfluidic engineering of artificial stem cell niches

Simone Allazetta

Stem cells play a key role in a wide range of biological processes, in large part due to their ability to self-renew or differentiate into specialized cell types in response to various biological cues. In vivo, stem cells reside in a complex microenvironme ...

Digital microfluidics for time-resolved cytotoxicity studies on single non-adherent yeast cells

Martinus Gijs, Matteo Cornaglia

Single cell analysis (SCA) has gained increased popularity for elucidating cellular heterogeneity at genomic, proteomic and cellular levels. Flow cytometry is considered as one of the most widely used techniques to characterize single cell responses; howev ...

Royal Soc Chemistry2015

Stem cell therapies hold tremendous potential for tissue and organ regeneration. Yet, there remains significant need for better ex vivo culture and manipulation methods. On the one hand, many tissue-specific stem cells cannot be propagated without causing ...

Efficient cell pairing in droplets using dual-color sorting

Christoph Merten, Hongxing Hu

The use of microfluidic droplets has become a powerful tool for the screening and manipulation of cells. However, currently this is restricted to assays involving a single cell type. Studies on the interaction of different cells (e.g. in immunology) as wel ...

Electrochemical push-pull probe: from scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) to multimodal altering of cell microenvironment

Hubert Girault, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Fernando Cortes Salazar, Dmitry Momotenko, Alexandra Bondarenko

To understand biological processes at the cellular level, a general approach is to alter the cells’ environment and to study their chemical responses. Herein, we present the implementation of an electrochemical push-pull probe, which combines a microfluidi ...
