Abstract
We report a simple and cost-effective nanofluidic fluorescence microscopy platform with parallel kinetic assay capability for the determination of kinetic parameters in a single run. An on-chip microfluidic concentration diluter, or gradient generator, was integrated to a biofunctionalized nanofluidic chip, enabling simultaneous interrogation of multiple biomolecular interactions with a full titration series of analyte in a single experiment. We demonstrate that since the association and dissociation phases are induced by the on-chip gradient generator and a reverse buffer flow operation, complete kinetic sensorgrams for IgG/anti-IgG interactions can be achieved within 20â¯min on a single device, which is at least 10 times faster than traditional kinetic techniques. This method could contribute to low-cost, rapid and high-throughput drug-screening and clinical diagnostics.
