Real-Time Interaction Cytometry (RT-IC) is a novel technology applying principles of biophysics and cytometry to enable the measurement of real-time kinetics directly on cells. The unique heliXcyto chip allows for the instantaneous and reversible immobilization of any eukaryotic cell type on the chip surface based on mechanical retention. After the trapping of single cells, association and dissociation of fluorescently labelled analytes can be monitored in real-time due to highly sensitive fluorescence detection with single-photon counters.
