In the fight against cancer and other diseases, understanding the behavior and characteristics of individual cells within tissues is critical. Traditional methods of studying cells, such as flow cytometry and histology, are limited by their inability to capture both the physical and functional properties of...
Catalysts are substances that accelerate chemical reactions without being consumed in the process. They are critical to a wide range of industrial processes, including oil refining, polymer production, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. However, not all catalyst particles within a given batch have the same level of...
Microfluidic devices have emerged as an innovative tool for single-cell analysis applications, but their success depends on the ability to retain cells in the cultivation chamber. Cell loss during long-term cultivation has been a significant challenge for microfluidic chips, limiting the ability to perform reproducible...
Encapsulation of cells inside microfluidic droplets is an important step in several cellular analysis applications. However, the lack of full control of experimental variables and conditions in droplet microfluidics can make it difficult to achieve Poisson distribution, which is the theoretical expectation for encapsulation statistics....
Protein crystallization is a crucial step in determining the structure of proteins, which is essential for understanding their function and developing new drugs. However, the process of crystallization is notoriously difficult and can take a long time to achieve success. In recent years, researchers have...
