Single-cell analysis by capillary electrophoresis

Abstract: What is the earth most like? ... It is most like a single cell." -Lewis Thomas [1] Perhaps Lewis Thomas understood the struggle of exploring the earth as that of a single cell: the diverse terrain occupied by various organisms, the aqueous environment, and all the small nuances that make the world functional. To scrutinize the deepest of oceans and the highest of mountains, and to conquer every facet and function of our planet, as heterogeneous as it is, would be an accomplishment in itself.As we have better u… Show more

“…Moreover, a preliminary correlation of relative abundance among the synthetic precursor L-DOPA, DA, and its metabolite naDA in each fly head has been noted. Separation of 100 μM concentration of each amine: L-DOPA (1), naOA (2), naDA (3), naTA (4), na5-HT (5), NE (6), E (7), OA (8), DHBA (9), DA (10), TA (11), and 5-HT (12). Separation was performed in a 13-μm-i.d.…”

“…Thus, the cells will be pulled towards the electrode with the opposite polarity to that of the cellular membrane by coulombic forces [7]. This well-known phenomenon is used in single-cell capillary electrophoresis [12], to control bacterial concentrations in microdevices [13] or to control the movement of cells within a microdevice [14]. A third effect that can be used to manipulate biological cells with electric fields is dielectrophoresis.…”

“…Neste caso, volumes muito pequenos (da ordem de nL ou mesmo pL) são removidos do ambiente celular com auxílio de micropipetas para posterior análise por técni-cas analíticas convencionais, como as espectroscópicas ou de separação, e especial atenção tem sido dada à eletroforese capilar. Ganhase em seletividade, pois as técnicas citadas podem conduzir a informações sobre a composição da amostra, mas perde-se em resolução temporal e espacial 105 . Uma excelente revisão sobre "single-cell analysis" foi publicada recentemente e nela podem ser encontradas informações detalhadas sobre as metodologias usualmente empregadas neste tipo de investigação 106 .…”
