Bump Array Device Having Asymmetric Gaps For Segregation Of Particles

View page
US Patent:
20100059414, Mar 11, 2010
Filed:
Jul 24, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/509175
Inventors:
James C. Sturm - Princeton NJ, US
Robert Austin - Princeton NJ, US
Kevin Loutherback - Princeton NJ, US
Keith Morton - St-Bruno-de-Montarville, CA
Jason Puchalla - Princeton NJ, US
Assignee:
The Trustees of Princeton University - Princeton NJ
International Classification:
B03B 5/00
US Classification:
209155
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to obstacle array devices (also known as bump array devices) for separating populations of particles by size. Improvements over previous obstacle array devices are realized by causing the fluid velocity profile across gaps between obstacles to be asymmetrical with respect to the plane that bisects the gap and is parallel to the direction of bulk fluid flow. Such asymmetry can be achieved by selecting the shape(s) of the obstacles bounding the gap such that the portions of the obstacles upstream from, downstream from, or bridging the narrowest portion of the gap are asymmetrical with respect to that plane. Improvements are also realized by using obstacles that have sharp edges bounding the gaps. Other improvements are realized by selecting obstacle shapes such that the critical particle dimensions defined by the gaps in two different fluid flow directions differ.

Inventors:
- Emeryville CA, US
Matthew E. FOWLER - Emeryville CA, US
Phillip J. M. ELMS - Emeryville CA, US
Kevin D. LOUTHERBACK - Emeryville CA, US

International Classification:
B01L 3/00
G01N 21/64
B03C 5/02
B03C 5/00
B01L 9/00
G06T 7/00
Abstract:
Methods, systems and kits are described herein for detecting the results of an assay. In particular, the methods, systems and devices of the present disclosure rely on a difference between the diffusion rates of a reporter molecule and an analyte of interest in order to quantify an amount of analyte in a microfluidic device. The analyte may be a secreted product of a biological micro-object.

US Patent:
20200139362, May 7, 2020
Filed:
Oct 17, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/656520
Inventors:
- Emeryville CA, US
Alexander J. MASTROIANNI - Alameda CA, US
Shao Ning PEI - Albany CA, US
Annamaria MOCCIARO - San Francisco CA, US
Kevin D. LOUTHERBACK - Berkeley CA, US
Yelena BRONEVETSKY - Alameda CA, US

Duane SMITH - Berkeley CA, US

Amanda L. GOODSELL - Alameda CA, US
Assignee:
Berkeley Lights, Inc. - Emeryville CA
International Classification:
B01L 3/00
C07K 14/74
G01N 33/68
G01N 33/50
Abstract:
Proto-antigen-presenting surfaces and related kits, methods, and uses are provided. The proto-antigen-presenting surface can comprise a plurality of primary activating molecular ligands comprising a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule configured to bind to a T cell receptor (TCR) of a T cell and a plurality of of co-activating molecular ligands each including a TCR co-activating molecule or an adjunct TCR activating molecule, wherein an exchange factor is bound to the MHC molecules. Exchange factors include, e.g., dipeptides such as GL, GF, GR, etc. Proto-antigen-presenting surfaces can be used to rapidly prepare antigen-presenting surfaces comprising one or more peptide antigens of interest by contacting the proto-antigen-presenting surface with one or more peptide antigens so as to displace the exchange factor. As such, the disclosure facilitates rapid evaluation of the immunogenicity of peptide antigens for activating T lymphocytes.
