Pipette petri dish single-cell trapping (PP-SCT) in microfluidic platforms: A passive hydrodynamic technique

Microfluidics-based biochips play a vital role in single-cell research applications. Handling and positioning of single cells at the microscale level are an essential need for various applications, including genomics, proteomics, secretomics, and lysis-analysis. In this article, the pipette Petri di...
