Single cell resolution analysis of ultrasound-produced multi-cellular tumor spheroids

We have previously presented an ultrasonic standing wave (USW) 3D culture platform enabling parallel production, staining and processing of 100 uniformly sized multi-cellular tumor spheroids (MCTS) [1]. Here, we use the system for single cell resolution analysis of A498 renal carcinoma MCTS by off-chip fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and on-chip automatic image analysis methods based on 3D confocal microscopy images.
