Yong Zeng publishes "High-performance single cell genetic analysis using microfluidic emulsion generator arrays" in Analytical Chemistry.
High-throughput single cell analysis technologies hold the key for both statistical characterization of stochastic genetic variation and sensitive detection of rare mutants within large cell populations. The cover shows a microfabricated emulsion generator array device on a 4-inch glass wafer. A compact micropump composed of three coaxial ring-shaped valves drives a high-density array of 96 droplet generators capable of producing 3 x 10^6 nL droplets per hour for high-throughput multiplex genetic analysis of single cells.
