微流控装置广泛应用于生物学的许多领域,但一个关键的限制是细胞通常被固体壁包围,这使得很难接近那些表现出特定表型的细胞进行进一步研究。在这里,我们提供了一个通用的和灵活的解决方案,这个问题,利用显着的性能的微流体回路与流体壁透明的界面之间的培养基和不混溶的碳氟化合物,很容易刺穿移液管。我们提供了两个概念的证据,其中特定的细胞亚群被分离和回收:(i)鼠巨噬细胞趋化性对补体成分5a和(ii)细菌(铜绿假单胞菌)在发展生物膜迁移到抗生素。我们在几分钟内在标准培养皿上构建电路,添加细胞,泵入层流,使分子扩散产生吸引剂梯度,获取延时图像,并通过使用3D打印适配器在迁移细胞周围构建流体壁,以数十微米的精度在真实的时间内分离所需的亚群,将传统显微镜转换为造壁机器。我们的方法允许感兴趣的活细胞容易地从微流体装置中提取用于下游分析。
Microfluidic devices are widely used in many fields of biology, but a key limitation is that cells are typically surrounded by solid walls, making it hard to access those that exhibit a specific phenotype for further study. Here, we provide a general and flexible solution to this problem that exploits the remarkable properties of microfluidic circuits with fluid walls—transparent interfaces between culture media and an immiscible fluorocarbon that are easily pierced with pipets. We provide two proofs of concept in which specific cell subpopulations are isolated and recovered: (i) murine macrophages chemotaxing toward complement component 5a and (ii) bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) in developing biofilms that migrate toward antibiotics. We build circuits in minutes on standard Petri dishes, add cells, pump in laminar streams so molecular diffusion creates attractant gradients, acquire time-lapse images, and isolate desired subpopulations in real time by building fluid walls around migrating cells with an accuracy of tens of micrometers using 3D printed adaptors that convert conventional microscopes into wall-building machines. Our method allows live cells of interest to be easily extracted from microfluidic devices for downstream analyses.
