  • SAMPLE SORTING DEVICE AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20240053252
    Abstract: A device for sorting cells includes a rotatable substrate (601) configured to rotate around a rotation axis (611) to generate a centrifugal force and a cover layer (441) attached to the rotatable substrate (601). The rotatable substrate (601) includes a sample reservoir (602) disposed at the center of the rotatable substrate (601), a flow path (604) coupled to the sample reservoir (602) and extending radially towards a periphery of the rotatable substrate (601) and including a bifurcation (606) into a main channel (607) and a side channel (608). The rotatable substrate (601) moves a plurality of cells stored in the sample reservoir (602) to a periphery of the rotatable substrate (601) by a centrifugal force. The cover layer (441) includes a first opening in fluid communication with the main channel (607) and a second opening in fluid communication with the side channel (608).

  • SEQUENCING SYSTEMS AND METHODS UTILIZING NON-PLANAR SUBSTRATES
    Publication number: 20230381782
    Abstract: A nucleic acid sequencing system may include non-planar substrates coupled to the outer surface of a rotating drum. The substrates may be curved and include a plurality of nucleic acid samples. A detection system, including for example an objective and a camera, may detect sequencing events on the non-planar substrate while the non-planar substrate is rotated relative to the detection system around a longitudinal axis of the drum by the actuation system.

  • SEQUENCING SYSTEMS AND METHODS UTILIZING CURVED IMAGING PATHS ON ROTATING SUBSTRATES
    Publication number: 20220403466
    Abstract: A nucleic acid sequencing system may include a substrate coupled to a rotating disk. The substrate may include a plurality of nucleic acid samples. A detection system, including for example an objective and a camera, may detect sequencing events on the substrate while the substrate is rotated relative to the detection system around a rotational axis of the substrate, perpendicular to a surface of the substrate, by the actuation system.

  • Support for a cantilevered lens assembly
    Publication number: 20070273844
    Abstract: A exemplary system embodiment for supporting a cantilevered lens assembly positioned in a projection display device includes a first support member and a second support member. The first support member is configured to be coupled to the projection display device and is shaped to receive a portion of the cantilevered lens assembly. The second support member is configured for coupling the cantilevered lens assembly to the projection display device.
