摘要 | Herein, we developed a flexible and cost-effective manual droplet operation system (MDOS) for performing miniaturized cell assays as well as single cell analysis. The MDOS consists of a manual x-y-z translation stage for liquid transferring and switching, a high-precision syringe pump for liquid driving and metering, a tapered capillary probe for droplet manipulation, a droplet array chip for droplet loading and reaction, sample/reagent reservoirs for storage, and a microscope for droplet observation, with a total expense of only $4,000. By using the flexible combination of three elementary operations of the x-y-z stage's moving and the pump's aspirating and depositing, the MDOS can manually achieve multiple droplet handling operations in the nanoliter to picoliter range, including droplet generation, assembling, fusion, diluting, and splitting. On this basis, multiple cell-related operations could be performed, such as nanoliter-scale in-droplet cell culture, cell coculture, drug stimulation, cell washing, and cell staining, as well as formation of picoliter single-cell droplets. The feasibility and flexibility of the MDOS was demonstrated in multi-mode miniaturized cell assays, including cell-based drug test, first-pass effect assay, and single-cell enzyme assay. The MDOS with the features of low cost, easy to build and flexible to use, could provide a promising alternative for performing miniaturized assays in routine laboratories, in addition to conventional microfluidic chip-based systems and automated robot systems. |
