Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

BACKGROUND: We present an optical waveguide based cytometer that is capable of simultaneously collecting the light scattered by cells over a wide range of solid angles. Such comprehensive scattering data are a prerequisite for the microstructural characterization of cells. METHODS: We use latex beads as cell mimics, and demonstrate the ability of this new cytometer to collect back-scattered light in two dimensions (2D). This cytometer is based on a liquid-core optical waveguide, excited by prism coupling, that also serves as the microfluidic channel. In principle, our use of a hemispherical lens allows the collection of scattered light from 0 to 180 degrees in 2D. RESULTS: The experimentally observed positions of the intensity peaks of the back-scattered light agree well with theoretical prediction of scattering from both 4.0- and 9.6-mum diameter latex beads. The position of the bead, relative to the axes of the hemispherical lens and the microchannel, strongly affects the scattering pattern. We discuss a computational method for determining these offsets. CONCLUSIONS: We show that wide-angle 2D light scattering patterns of cell-sized latex beads can be observed in a microfluidic-based optical cytometer that uses leaky waveguide mode excitation. This chip-based system is compatible with emerging chip-based technologies.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
