CELL BARCODING IN MICROFLUIDICS

摘要

The present invention relates to the field of microfluidics and in particular to methods for co-localizing a particle comprising DNA and/or RNA with a known barcode oligonucleotide. Thereby, the transcriptome or DNA of a cell can be barcoded and correlated to a cell phenotype or examined for the effect of a drug on the cell. The invention also provides microfluidic devices and systems having properties which make them particularly suitable for use in the methods of the invention.
