Abstract:Rapid and accurate sorting of biological samples is extremely useful in a wide variety of applications. The model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans lends itself to automated fluid-flow based sorting because of its ability to live in aqueous solutions. Here, we build upon previous developments to construct a microfluidic device capable of sorting individuals based on a variety of characteristics, with a specific application toward differentiating fluorescently marked individuals. We find that our new design gener… Show more
