A microfluidic cell-trapping device to study dynamic host-microbe interactions at the single-cell level

John McKinney, Matthieu Jean-Hubert Delincé, Chiara Toniolo

Single-cell imaging of host-microbe interactions over time is impeded by cellular motility because the cells under scrutiny tend to migrate out of the imaging field. To overcome this technical challenge, we developed a microfluidic platform for imaging hun ...
