Researchers use microfluidic technology for observing microbubble guided drug delivery on spheroids

Researchers at the University of Leeds have developed a microfluidic platform for evaluating microbubble-assisted drug delivery to spheroids. The microfluidic technology helped in creating a physiologically relevant in vitro condition for trapping and culturing tumor spheroids and subjecting them to microbubble guided drug delivery. The...

Microfluidic platform for performing multiplex ex vivo assays on tissue slices

Tissue slices are precision-cut organ slices that are commonly used for metabolism and toxicity research due to their advantages such as maintaining cell-type diversity and preserving the organ cytostructure as well as the metabolic enzymes. A major issue is that the tissues are mostly single-use in...

Microfluidic platform enables live imaging and retrieval of single cells

Microfluidic single-cell analysis platforms often take advantage of droplet microfluidic for encapsulating the cells within nL-pL droplets at high throughputs. Depending on the target outcome (genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, etc.), specific protocols are available for the tests. Cells in a culture can be highly heterogeneous and impose...

Microfluidic platform for measuring mechanical and electrical properties of single cells

Undoubtedly, microfluidic technology has opened many new windows of opportunities for single-cell analysis. Droplet microfluidics, for example, has shown great promises for encapsulation, manipulation, and incubation of single-cells within nL-pL droplets at very high throughputs. As the field grows more and more methods get developed...

Measurement of single-cell metabolism using a microfluidic platform

It was only less than 100 years ago that Sir Hans Adolf Krebs measured the metabolism rate of muscle cells by exposing fresh pigeon breast meat to different reagents to discover the Krebs cycle (also known as citric acid cycle or tricarboxylic acid cycle or...
