Valves And Other Flow Control In Fluidic Systems Including Microfluidic Systems

View page
US Patent:
20110151578, Jun 23, 2011
Filed:
May 15, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/992376
Inventors:
Adam R. Abate - Somerville MA, US
David A. Weitz - Bolton MA, US
Assignee:
President and Fellows of Harvard College - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
G01N 1/10
B01L 3/00
US Classification:
436180, 422502
Abstract:
Articles and methods for controlling flow in fluidic Systems, especially in microfluidic Systems, are provided. A microfluidic System includes a configuration such that the actuation of a single valve can allow the switching of fluids from a first fluid path (e.g., a first channel section) to a second fluid path (e.g., a second channel section). This may be achieved by incorporating a valve () with a first channel section (), which may have a lower hydrodynamic resistance than a second channel section () prior to actuation of the valve. Actuation of the valve () can cause only the hydrodynamic resistance of the first channel section () to increase, thereby redirecting fluid flow into the second channel section () (which now has a relatively lower hydrodynamic resistance). The valve comprises a control channel () for introducing a positive or reduced pressure, and is adapted to modulate fluid flow in an adjacent channel section by constricting or expanding the channel section ().

Systems And Methods For Nucleic Acid Sequencing

US Patent:
20110267457, Nov 3, 2011
Filed:
Dec 19, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/809120
Inventors:
David A Weitz - Bolton MA, US
Jeremy Agresti - Cambridge, MA
Michael P. Weiner - Guilford CT, US
Adam R. Abate - Somerville MA, US
Tony Hung - Peachtree GA, US
International Classification:
C40B 30/04
C07H 1/00
H04N 7/18
G01N 33/53
US Classification:
348135, 436501, 506 9, 536 253, 348E07085
Abstract:
The present invention relates to systems and methods for sequencing nucleic acids, including sequencing nucleic acids in fluidic droplets. In one set of embodiments, the method employs sequencing by hybridization using droplets such as microfluidic droplets. In some embodiments, droplets are formed which include a target nucleic acid, a nucleic acid probe, and at least one identification element, such as a fluorescent particle. The nucleic acid probes that hybridize to the target nucleic acid are determined, in some instances, by determining the at least one identification element. The nucleic acid probes that hybridize to the target nucleic acid may be used to determine the sequence of the target nucleic acid. In certain instances, the microfluidic droplets are provided with reagents that modify the nucleic acid probe. In some cases, a droplet, such as those described above, is deformed such that the components of the droplets individually pass a target area.

Particle-Assisted Nucleic Acid Sequencing

View page
US Patent:
20120015822, Jan 19, 2012
Filed:
Dec 18, 2009
Appl. No.:
13/139326
Inventors:
David A. Weitz - Bolton MA, US
Adam R. Abate - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
President and Fellows of Harvard college - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
C40B 20/00
US Classification:
506 2
Abstract:
This invention generally relates to particle-assisted nucleic acid sequencing. In some embodiments, sequencing may be performed in a microfluidic device, which can offer desirable properties, for example, minimal use of reagents, facile scale-up, and/or high throughput. In one embodiment, a target nucleic acid may be exposed to particles having nucleic acid probes. By determining the binding of the particles to the target nucleic acid, the sequence of the target nucleic acid (or at least a portion of the target nucleic acid) can be determined. The target nucleic acid may be encapsulated within a fluidic droplet with the particles having nucleic acid probes, in certain instances. In some cases, the sequence of the target nucleic acid may be determined, based on binding of the particles, using sequencing by hybridization (SBH) algorithms or other known techniques.

Abstract:
Parallel uses of microfluidic methods and devices for focusing and/or forming discontinuous sections of similar or dissimilar size in a fluid are described. In some aspects, the present invention relates generally to flow-focusing-type technology, and also to microfluidics, and more particularly parallel use of microfluidic systems arranged to control a dispersed phase within a dispersant, and the size, and size distribution, of a dispersed phase in a multi-phase fluid system, and systems for delivery of fluid components to multiple such devices.

Fluid Injection

View page
US Patent:
20120132288, May 31, 2012
Filed:
Jun 25, 2010
Appl. No.:
13/379782
Inventors:
David A. Weitz - Bolton MA, US
Adam R. Abate - San Francisco CA, US
Tony Hung - Peachtree GA, US
Pascaline Mary - Cambridge MA, US
Assignee:
PRESIDENT AND FELLOWS OF HARVARD COLLEGE - CAMBRIDGE MA
International Classification:
F15C 1/00
US Classification:
137 13, 137803
Abstract:
The present invention generally relates to systems and methods for the control of fluids and, in some cases, to systems and methods for flowing a fluid into and/or out of other fluids. As examples, fluid may be injected into a droplet contained within a fluidic channel, or a fluid may be injected into a fluidic channel to create a droplet. In some embodiments, electrodes may be used to apply an electric field to one or more fluidic channels, e.g., proximate an intersection of at least two fluidic channels. For instance, a first fluid may be urged into and/or out of a second fluid, facilitated by the electric field. The electric field, in some cases, may disrupt an interface between a first fluid and at least one other fluid. Properties such as the volume, flow rate, etc. of a first fluid being urged into and/or out of a second fluid can be controlled by controlling various properties of the fluid and/or a fluidic droplet, for example curvature of the fluidic droplet, and/or controlling the applied electric field.

Multiple Emulsions Created Using Jetting And Other Techniques

View page
US Patent:
20120211084, Aug 23, 2012
Filed:
Sep 1, 2010
Appl. No.:
13/388596
Inventors:
David A. Weitz - Bolton MA, US
Julian W.P. Thiele - Schwarzenbek, GB
Adam R. Abate - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
President and Fellows of Harvard College - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
F17D 1/00
US Classification:
137 1, 137561 A
Abstract:
The present invention generally relates to emulsions, and more particularly, to multiple emulsions. In one aspect, multiple emulsions are formed by urging a fluid into a channel, e.g., by causing the fluid to enter the channel as a “jet.” Side channels can be used to encapsulate the fluid with a surrounding fluid. In some cases, multiple fluids may flow through a channel collinearly before multiple emulsion droplets are formed. The fluidic channels may also, in certain embodiments, include varying degrees of hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity. As examples, the fluidic channel may be relatively hydrophilic upstream of an intersection (or other region within the channel) and relatively hydrophobic downstream of the intersection, or vice versa. In some cases, the average cross-sectional dimension may change, e.g., at an intersection. For instance, the average cross-sectional dimension may increase at the intersection. Surprisingly, a relatively small increase in dimension, in combination with a change in hydrophilicity of the fluidic channel, may delay droplet formation of a stream of collinearly-flowing multiple fluids under certain flow conditions; accordingly, the point at which multiple emulsion droplets are formed can be readily controlled within the fluidic channel. In some cases, the multiple droplet may be formed from the collinear flow of fluids at (or near) a single location within the fluidic channel. In addition, unexpectedly, systems such as those described herein may be used to encapsulate fluids in single or multiple emulsions that are difficult or impossible to encapsulate using other techniques, such as fluids with low surface tension, viscous fluids, or viscoelastic fluids. Other aspects of the invention are generally directed to methods of making and using such systems, kits involving such systems, emulsions created using such systems, or the like.

US Patent:
20120222748, Sep 6, 2012
Filed:
Oct 26, 2010
Appl. No.:
13/503588
Inventors:
David A. Weitz - Bolton MA, US
Adam R. Abate - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
PRESIDENT AND FELLOWS OF HARVARD COLLEGE - CAMBRIDGE MA
International Classification:
F03B 17/00
US Classification:
137 1, 137561 R
Abstract:
The present invention is generally related to systems and methods for producing droplets. The droplets may contain varying species, e.g., for use as a library. In some cases, at least one droplet is used to create a plurality of droplets, using techniques such as flow-focusing techniques. In one set of embodiments, a plurality of droplets, containing varying species, can be divided to form a collection of droplets containing the various species therein. A collection of droplets, according to certain embodiments, may contain various subpopulations of droplets that all contain the same species therein. Such a collection of droplets may be used as a library in some cases, or may be used for other purposes.

Inventors:
Kenneth B. Crozier - Cambridge MA, US
David A. Weitz - Bolton MA, US
Ethan Schonbrun - Newton Highlands MA, US
Adam R. Abate - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
President and Fellows of Havard College - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
G01N 21/03
G01N 21/64
US Classification:
250432 R, 250428, 2502081, 250200
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for high-throughput fluorescence detection using integrated microfabricated optical element arrays are described. In one example, the optical element arrays may comprise one or more microfabricated Fresnel zone plates, which may be configured to collect light from samples flowing in microfluidic channels. Multiple samples may be inspected in parallel at significantly high rates (e.g., about 200,000 samples per second or higher). A relay lens combined with high numerical aperture integrated microfabricated optical elements provides significant signal enhancement (e.g., on the order of at least 200 times that of conventional fluorescence detection methods).
