Abstract
There is a growing interest in the development of imaging flow cytometry techniques that can simultaneously capture dual-modality images of single cells on a single detector. In this study, we developed a label-free light-sheet dualmodality imaging flow cytometer that is capable of simultaneously capturing bright-field and two-dimensional (2D) light scattering images of individual particles on a single detector. The system uses the principle of hydrodynamic focusing to make the microspheres flow in a single file. The laser and metal halide lamp beams are combined as light sources, which are directed onto the microspheres, providing 2D light scattering patterns and bright-field images of single particles. The two optical channels to collect the scattering patterns and bright-field images are collected by a single CMOS detector. By employing this dual-modality imaging flow cytometry, we demonstrated the obtaining and analysis of the label-free bright-field and light-scattering images of individual micrometer-sized particles. The label-free light-sheet dual-modality imaging flow cytometry is promising for applications in single-cell clinical analysis.
