  • Publication number: 20200158628
    Abstract: A system for processing a sample includes a chamber for receiving a sample, at least one light source, and an imager array configured to generate a sample image of the sample in the chamber. The system can be used to process a sample in a multiplexed manner. For example, one variation of a method for processing a sample includes identifying one or more features of interest in the sample based at least in part on the forms and/or darkness shift of one or more marker particles depicted in the sample image. Another variation of a method includes illuminating the sample with light having a wavelength outside a wavelength detection window of the imager array, to thereby induce at least a portion of the sample to fluoresce light within the wavelength detection window.

  • Publication number: 20180333724
    Abstract: A system for processing sample entities includes a chamber including a surface having an array of measurement regions, wherein at least one measurement region comprises a first set of one or more electrodes and a second set of one or more electrodes, wherein the first set of electrodes is configured to measure a first characteristic of a sample entity when the sample entity is traversing the first set of electrodes, and wherein the second set of electrodes is configured to selectively retain the sample entity in the at least one measurement region based at least in part on the measured first characteristic and/or measure a second characteristic of the sample entity.

  • Patent number: 9095846
    Abstract: The invention relates to a ligand that may be used to create a catalyst including a coordination complex is formed by the addition of two metals; Cp, Cp* or an unsubstituted or substituted ?-arene; and two coordinating solvent species or solvent molecules. The bimetallic catalyst may be used in the hydrogenation of CO2 to form formic acid and/or salts thereof, and in the dehydrogenation of formic acid and/or salts thereof to form H2 and CO2.
