摘要
Finding the few: Cell-surface proteins are useful disease biomarkers, but current highthroughput methods are limited to detecting cells expressing more than several hundred proteins. Enzymatic amplification in microfluidic droplets (see picture) is a high-throughput method for detection and analysis of cell-surface biomarkers expressed at very low levels on individual human cells. Droplet optical labels allow concurrent analysis of several samples. © 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
