Next generation microfluidics platform for high throughput single cell proteomics


EMSL Project ID
51583

Abstract

The project aims to improve both sensitivity and throughput in single cell proteomics through the development of a microfluidic platform that leverages current technology. A hybrid picowell/nanowell chip will be designed and tested for single cell proteomics on a commercially available robotic system. The resulting platform will be demonstrated by profiling protein expressions from >1000 single plant cells.
