Abstract:
A system and method for isolating and analyzing single cells, comprising: a substrate having a broad surface; a set of wells defined at the broad surface of the substrate, and a set of channels, defined by the wall, that fluidly couple each well to at least one adjacent well in the set of wells; and fluid delivery module defining an inlet and comprising a plate, removably coupled to the substrate, the plate defining a recessed region fluidly connected to the inlet and facing the broad surface of the substrate, the fluid delivery module comprising a cell capture mode.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for isolating and analyzing a population of target particles from a biological sample in single-particle format, comprising:\n a substrate having a broad surface, wherein the substrate defines a set of wells arranged in a hexagonal close-packed configuration, wherein each well in the set of wells is configured to receive and retain a single target particle of the population of target particles and comprises:\n a base surface defined within the substrate; \n an open surface directly opposing the base surface; and \n a well cavity cooperatively defined between the base surface and the open surface having a longitudinal axis arranged normal to the broad surface of the substrate; and \n a fluid delivery module including a fluid reservoir arranged superior to the broad surface of the substrate and directly fluidically connected to each well in the set of wells at the open surface of each well, wherein the fluid delivery module is configured to transfer a fluid volume to the set of wells in a direction parallel to the broad surface of the substrate through the fluid reservoir.
