A setup is presented for automated high-throughput measurements of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) from macromolecular solutions on the bending-magnet beamline X33 of EMBL at the storage ring DORIS-III (DESY, Hamburg). A new multi-cell compartment allows for rapid switching between in-vacuum and in-air operation, for digital camera assisted control of cell filling and for colour sample illumination. The beamline is equipped with a Pilatus 1 M-W pixel detector for SAXS and a Pilatus 300 k-W for wide-angle scattering (WAXS), and results from the use of the Pilatus detectors for scattering studies are reported. The setup provides a broad resolution range from 100 to 0.36 nm without the necessity of changing the sample-to-detector distance. A new optimized robotic sample changer is installed, permitting rapid and reliable automated sample loading and cell cleaning with a required sample volume of 40 µl. All the devices are fully integrated into the beamline control software system, ensuring fully automated and user-friendly operation (attended, unattended and remote) with a throughput of up to 15 measurements per hour.

A single-bead-based, fully integrated microfluidic system has been developed for high-throughput CD4+T lymphocyte enumeration at point-of-care testing. Instead of directly counting CD4+T lymphocytes, CD4+T lymphocyte enumeration is achieved by quantitatively detecting CD4 antigen from the lysed blood sample with a functionalized polycarbonate single bead based on chemiluminescence. To implement the sandwiched chemiluminescence immunoassay with reduced nonspecific binding, a streamlined microfluidic chip with multiple reaction chambers is developed to allow each reaction step to be completed in an independent chamber where reagent is pre-stored. With simple magnetic control, the single bead with an embedded ferrous core can be consecutively transported between each of two adjacent chambers for different reactions. Meanwhile, enhanced mixing can be achieved by moving the single bead back and forth inside one chamber with magnetic actuation. High-throughput detection can be performed when a linear actuation stage is adopted to introduce synchronous magnetic control to multiple single beads in parallel microfluidic chips. A sensitive charge-coupled device (CCD) camera is adopted for high-throughput chemiluminescence detection from multiple single beads. Experimental results show that with the fully integrated microfluidic system, easy-to-operate, accurate, low-cost, immediate, and high-throughput CD4+T lymphocyte enumeration can be successfully achieved at resource-poor settings.

The introduction of tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) to clinical laboratories and the advent of expanded newborn screening (NBS) were crucial changes to public health programs worldwide. Speed, robustness, accuracy, selectivity, and specificity of analysis are all requirements of expanded NBS and are needed to minimize false positive results risks, to possibly eliminate false negatives, and to improve the positive predictive value of NBS. In this study, we firstly evaluated the analytical performances of the RenataDX Screening System, a fully integrated flow-injection MS/MS (FIA-MS/MS) IVD system for high-throughput dried blood spot (DBS) analysis in a routine NBS laboratory. Since a choice of several commercial NBS kits is available, we sought to compare NeoBaseTM 2 (PerkinElmer®) and MassChrom® (Chromsystems) non-derivatized kits on the RenataDX platform by evaluating their analytical performances. Moreover, we verified the degree of correlation between data obtained by the two different NBS MS/MS kits by FIA-MS/MS of over 500 samples. Our data suggest that both methods correlate well with clinically insignificant differences that do not impact the NBS result. Finally, while NeoBase™ 2 offers an easier and faster sample preparation, MassChrom® provides a cleaner sample extract which empirically should improve instrument reliability.
