  • Patent number: 9651470
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for fluidic cell guidance for flow cytometry or analyte enrichment. This allows magnetically marked analytes, in particular cells (1), to be dynamically enriched and individually detected in the flow from a sample, in particular magnetoresistively. For cell guidance, guiding ridges (12) are arranged in a flow channel (100), and so, in addition to a magnetic enrichment force (10z) and the shearing force of the flow (10y), a deflecting force (10x) caused by the fluidic obstacles (12) also acts on the cells (1) to be detected.

  • Publication number: 20140356891
    Abstract: Devices and methods for magnetic flow measurement are provided. Individual analytes are detected in the through-flow, and a dynamic detection of a changing analyte state is carried out, for example with respect to the analyte size or morphology. For this purpose, the analytes to be detected, such as cells for example, are directly marked in the medium surrounding said analytes with magnetic labels and transported through the flow channel of a measuring device comprising at least two magnetic sensors. A characteristic measurement signal is generated by means of the magnetic sensors that are mutually spaced in the flow direction. The magnetic analyte diameter is calculated using the interval between the measurement deflections, and the analyte state can be evaluated using the magnetic analyte diameter.

  • Publication number: 20140193851
    Abstract: In a magnetic flow measurement, such as flow cytometry, individual analytes are detected in the through-flow. The analytes (e.g., cells) are marked with magnetic labels directly in the medium surrounding the analytes. The analytes are transported through the flow channel of a measuring device including at least one magnetic sensor. Using the magnetic marking of the analytes, the magnetic analyte diameter (rmag) is detected rather than the optical or hydrodynamic size (ropt) of the analytes. The analyte diameter is determined by the stray field maximum. The analyte diameter is smaller than the analyte size, such that individual analytes may be detected at high analyte concentrations.

  • Publication number: 20140127710
    Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for magnetic flow cytometry, wherein magnetic units (22, 24) are arranged in a flow channel (10) which is configured, with respect to the channel diameter (100) and the surface condition of the channel inner wall, in such a manner that a flow of a complex suspension can be produced in the flow channel (10) with a laminar flow profile (40). The forces (FM) that can be caused by the magnetic units (22, 24) and the forces (FS) that can be caused by the flow, applied to magnetic markers (26) that are not bound to cells, have the effect of holding back said magnetic markers (26) that are not bound to cells in the front channel section (240) and preventing them from continuing to flow along the flow channel (10) via the cell measuring device (20).

  • Patent number: 8637831
    Abstract: An x-ray detector that is suitable for both imaging and dose rate measurement has a hybrid photoactive layer arranged between an electrode and a substrate. The hybrid photoactive layer includes a number of scintillators as well as a bulk heterojunction and is designed to produce indirect x-ray conversion. The bulk heterojunction absorbs the scintillator radiation to form electron-hole pairs that are detected electrically. The production takes place by a spraying process, in particular a co-spraying process of bulk heterojunction solution and scintillator particle suspension.

  • Publication number: 20130337497
    Abstract: In a measuring device, a production thereof, and a use thereof for magnetic flow cytometry, a microfluidic channel is disposed along an enrichment route such that a magnetically marked cell sample flowing through the microfluidic channel is aligned to magnetic guide strips, enriched by the magnetic field of a magnet at the floor of the channel, and guided past a sensor. The enrichment route is thereby implemented with the microfluidic channel on the packaging of the semiconductor chip carrying the sensor. This construction ensures a long enrichment route for high throughput of large sample volumes.
