AUTOMATED FISH ANALYSIS, CIRCULATING MICROFLUIDIC CHIP, AND METHOD FOR IMMOBILIZING CELLS TO A MICROFLUIDIC CHIP

摘要

The present invention provides for a method of implementing fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) or other cellular analysis processes using intact cells within a microfluidic, chip-based, apparatus. The invention further provides for a method of cellular immobilization within a microfluidic device. Also provided is a method for automated analysis of FISH or other cellular analysis using discrete colormetric probes.
