Abstract: A method for dissociating cell aggregates in an agitated reactor. The method comprises providing a cell culture comprising cell aggregates in the agitated reactor, contacting the cell aggregates with a dissociation reagent, generating a dissociation force in the agitated reactor and exposing the contacted cell aggregates to the generated dissociation force under conditions sufficient to dissociate the contacted cell aggregates. The method may be used in a process for passaging cells and/or generating dissociated differentiated cells from stem and/or progenitor cells.

Abstract: Micro-scale light emitting diodes (micro-LEDs) with ultra-low leakage current results from a sidewall passivation method for the micro-LEDs using a chemical treatment followed by conformal dielectric deposition, which reduces or eliminates sidewall damage and surface recombination, and the passivated micro-LEDs can achieve higher efficiency than micro-LEDs without sidewall treatments. Moreover, the sidewall profile of micro-LEDs can be altered by varying the conditions of chemical treatment.
