Embodiment Construction

[0050]Efforts to characterize the state or capabilities of a biological system or sample may be confounded or obscured by bulk analysis methods. This is evident in cellular analysis such as immunological surveys wherein a sample comprising many cells analyzed in a common volume or medium may act to mask or dilute analytes. It is therefore desirable in many instances to provide very small volume and single cell sample analysis capabilities. For small sample volumes including those involving a single or a few cells it is further desirable to sequester multiple samples in discrete reaction regions or areas so they may be subjected to parallel analysis. Such methods may require avoiding sample-to-sample cross-talk and contamination while providing the ability to subject the samples to uniform and discrete treatment. Collection of accurate and sensitive data in a scalable and multiplexed format with minimal user intervention is also important.

Abstract

Embodiments disclose apparatus, methods and software for performing biological screening and analysis implemented using an instrument platform capable of detecting a wide variety of cell-based secretions, expressed proteins, and other cellular components. The platform may be configured for simultaneous multiplexed detection of a plurality biological components such that a large number of discrete samples may be individually sequestered and evaluated to detect or identify constituents from the samples in a highly parallelized and scalable manner.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 62 / 087,147 (Attorney Docket # IPX-0200 PRO) filed Dec. 3, 2014 entitled “METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SCREENING IMMUNE CELLS FOR SINGLE-CELL FUNCTION AND POLY-FUNCTION PROFILE” which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE[0002]The present invention generally relates to cellular analysis, and more particularly to apparatus, methods, and software for biochemical assessment and functional characterization of cellular states.BACKGROUND[0003]In fields including cell biology and immunology, development of analytical techniques for evaluation and quantitation of cellular protein expression and secretion profiles is of significant importance to elucidate underlying biochemical processes and cell signaling mechanisms. Due in part to the heterogeneous behaviors often exhibited by cells, a need exists for tools and procedures capable of ...
