RESUMO

Multiplex, digital nucleic acid detections have important biomedical applications, but the multiplexity of existing methods is predominantly achieved using fluorescent dyes or probes, making the detection complicated and costly. Here, we present the StratoLAMP for label-free, multiplex digital loop-mediated isothermal amplification based on visual stratification of the precipitate byproduct. The StratoLAMP designates two sets of primers with different concentrations to achieve different precipitate yields when amplifying different nucleic acid targets. In the detection, deep learning image analysis is used to stratify the precipitate within each droplet and determine the encapsulated targets for nucleic acid quantification. We investigated the effect of the amplification reagents and process on the precipitate generation and optimized the assay conditions. We then implemented a deep-learning image analysis pipeline for droplet detection, achieving an overall accuracy of 94.3%. In the application, the StratoLAMP successfully achieved the simultaneous quantification of two nucleic acid targets with high accuracy. By eliminating the need for fluorescence, StratoLAMP represents a unique concept toward label-free, multiplex nucleic acid assays and an analytical tool with great cost-effectiveness.

RESUMO

Antibody arrays have great implications in many biomedical settings. However, commonly used patterning methods have difficulties in generating antibody arrays with both high resolution and multiplexity, limiting their applications. Here, a convenient and versatile technique for the patterning of multiple antibodies with resolution down to 20 µm is reported using micropillar-focused droplet printing and microcontact printing. Droplets of antibody solutions are first printed and stably confined on the micropillars of a stamp, and then the antibodies absorbed on the micropillars are contact-printed to the target substrate, generating antibody patterns faithfully replicating the micropillar array. The effect of different parameters on the patterning results is investigated, including hydrophobicity of the stamps, override time of the droplet printing, incubation time, and the diameters of the capillary tips and micropillars. To demonstrate the utility of the method, multiplex arrays of anti-EpCAM and anti-CD68 antibodies is generated to capture breast cancer cells and macrophages, respectively, on the same substrate, and successful capturing of individual cell types and enrichment among the cells are achieved. It is envision that this method would serve as a versatile and useful protein patterning tool for biomedical applications.
