Microfluidic grid-based design for high throughput assays |
abstract |
Microfluidic chips have been developed to perform a range of high-throughput biochemical and cell-based assays over recent years. We have formulated an innovative design for a microfluidic chip that resembles a microtiter plate by placing the test chambers (each test chamber contains cells) and top-loading drug inlets (one per test chamber) in a grid according to the ANSI/SBS standards, yet offers the miniaturization and fluid handling advantages of microfluidics. This ensures that our chip design is compatible with fluid handling and imaging equipment already in use for drug screening. We have determined a range of topologies that allow placement of various elements of this microfluidic network within the grid alignment constraints. We also developed a resistance equalization methodology to reduce variability across assays run in different chambers of the microfluidic chip. Additionally, it offers orders of magnitude miniaturization over multiwell plates, and potentially more reliable fluid handling. |
