  • Ultra high throughput sampling and analysis systems and methods
    Publication number: 20040014239
    Abstract: Ultra-high throughput systems and methods are used for sampling large numbers of different materials from surfaces of substantially planar library storage components. The systems and methods typically employ: microfluidic devices having integrated capillary elements for carrying out the analysis of the sampled materials; library storage components, e.g., planar solid substrates, capable of retaining thousands, tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of different materials in small areas; sensing systems for allowing rapid and accurate sampling of the materials by the microfluidic devices, and associated instrumentation for control and analysis of the overall operation of these systems.
    Type: Application
    Filed: May 29, 2003
    Publication date: January 22, 2004
    Applicant: Caliper Technologies Corp.
    Inventors: Jeffrey A. Wolk, Sherri Ann Biondi, J. Wallace Parce, Morten J. Jensen, Anne R. Kopf-Sill
