Abstract
Here we present an integrated, "microfluidic drifting" based flow cytometry chip as a potential inexpensive, fast, and reliable diagnostic tool. Our device is capable of analyzing human blood for cell counting and diagnosis of diseases at a throughput of ∼3,754 events/sec. 10 μm Flow-Check Fluorospheres polystyrene (PS) calibration beads (Beckman Coulter, Inc.) were used for characterization of Forward Scatter, Side Scatter, and Fluorescent signals revealing coefficient of variation (CV) of 3.92%, 3.82%, and 9.81%, respectively. Comparison of Immonological analysis of human blood from healthy donor via microfluidic drifting flow cytometry chip revealed its comparable performance to commercial flow cytometer. Furthermore, to demonstrate the credibility of our device, CD4+ lymphocyte cell count of 18.4% in comparison to 19.2% from commercial flow cytometer suggests that this device possesses the potential of a useful POC diagnostic tool.
