Abstract

A droplet-based high throughput platform was developed to screen single cell proteolytic enzymatic activity in a continuous flow manner, as a functional assay based flow cytometry (Droplet-FACS). With the capability to screen ~50 cells per second, whole primary tumor screening (~2x105 cells) was approached within 60 minutes to allow rapid profiling of patients' tumors based single cell multiplexed enzymatic assay. Moreover, the aggressive sub group of cancer cells could be identified and sorted for down-stream gene analysis.
