Functional Enrichment and Purification of a Therapeutically Superior Population of Cells (Case No. 2024-024)

Summary: UCLA researchers in the Departments of Bioengineering and Biological Chemistry have developed a method for identifying and enriching therapeutically useful cell sub-populations based on their secretions (SEC-seq). Background: Cell function is defined by a myriad of biomolecules that they secrete; over 3 thousand proteins are estimated to...

2016-219-3 SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPTICAL TRANSIENT LIQUID MOLDING OF MICROPARTICLES AND USES FOR THE SAME

SUMMARY: The Di Carlo group at UCLA has invented a microparticle that enables analysis of adherent cells via flow cytometry with high throughput. BACKGROUND: Traditional flow cytometry is a fluorescence-based technique used to characterize cells on a molecular level usually suspended in a fluid. However, many cells are inherently attached to matrix...
