Constricted Apertures for Dynamic Trapping and Micro-/Nanoscale Discrimination Based on Recapture Kinetics

Abstract: Sensing via analyte passage through a constricted aperture is a powerful and robust technology which is being utilized broadly, from DNA sequencing to single virus and cell characterization. Micro-and nanoscale structures typically translocate a constricted aperture, or pore, using electrophoretic force. In the present work, we explore the advances in metrology which can be achieved through rapid directional switching of hydrodynamic forces. Interestingly, multipass measurements of microscale and nanoscale str… Show more

“…The attempts to translocate ∼1 μm polystyrene beads through a borosilicate pore of ∼1.3 μm (Figure 1a) were not successful under applied voltage (up to 1000 mV) due to a net electroosmotic flow in the opposite direction of translocation as previously shown by our group. 11 At low salt concentration (0.1X PBS), the counterions in solution screen the surface charge of the nanopore walls (as shown by increased surface concentrations of the cation in Figure 1b) and cause EOF streaming out of the pore at zero pressure. At a low negative pressure (ΔP ≈ −200 Pa), the translocation of polystyrene microspheres was experimentally observed from the cis chamber (i.e., outside the pipet) to the trans chamber (i.e., inside the pipet).…”

“…In addition, the application of pressure decreased the standard deviation of the volume measurement in all experiments. We believe this is caused by particles traveling through the center of the pore more frequently (i.e., via a single trajectory) since (1) the capture volume is constrained to a narrow region directly in front of the pore, 11 and (2) the fluid flow profile within the pore is parabolic with the highest flow velocities occurring in the center of the pore (Figure 2(d,e)).…”
