We realize a magnetoresistive emulsion analyzer capable of detection, multiparametric analysis and sorting of ferrofluid-containing nanoliter-droplets. The operation of the device in a cytometric mode provides high throughput and quantitative information about the dimensions and magnetic content of the emulsion. Our method offers important complementarity to conventional optical approaches involving ferrofluids, and paves the way to the development of novel compact tools for diagnostics and nanomedicine including drug design and screening.
我们实现了一种磁阻乳液分析仪,能够检测、多参数分析和分选含有铁磁流体的纳升级液滴。该设备在细胞测量模式下的操作提供了高通量和关于乳液尺寸和磁性含量的定量信息。我们的方法为涉及铁磁流体的传统光学方法提供了重要的补充,并为包括药物设计和筛选在内的诊断学和纳米医学的新型紧凑型工具的开发铺平了道路。
