Heterogeneity within cell populations is a major obstacle for gathering accurate data for genomic and proteomic studies. Single cell analysis has emerged as the platform technology for solving the problem of cell heterogeneity in basic cell studies. A more precise understanding of single cell behavior and differences between individual cells would...

With the advent demand for fuel cell technologies, there exists a need for improved methods of mass production of the key ingredients in biofuel cells, such as biomass or photosynthetic bacteria. Researchers at Arizona State University have developed a highly configurable, modular system for scale-up studies of photosynthetic microorganisms. This...
