    (IEEE, 2020) Anıl İnevi, Müge; Ünal, Yağmur Ceren; Yaman, Sena; Tekin, H. Cumhur; Meşe, Gülistan; Meşe, Gülistan
    Label-free magnetic levitation is one of the most recent Earth-based in vitro techniques that simulate the microgravity. This technique offers a great opportunity to biofabricate scaffold-free 3-dimensional (3D) structures and to study the effects of microgravity on these structures. In this study, self-assembled 3D living structures were fabricated in a paramagnetic medium by magnetic levitation technique and effects of the technique on cellular health was assessed. This magnetic force-assisted assembly system applied here offers broad applications in several fields, such as space biotechnology and bottom-up tissue engineering.

    Hologlev: a Hybrid Magnetic Levitation Platform Integrated With Lensless Holographic Microscopy for Density-Based Cell Analysis
    (American Chemical Society, 2021) Delikoyun, Kerem; Yaman, Sena; Yılmaz, Esra; Sarıgil, Öykü; Anıl İnevi, Müge; Telli, Kübra; Yalçın Özuysal, Özden
    In clinical practice, a variety of diagnostic applications require the identification of target cells. Density has been used as a physical marker to distinguish cell populations since metabolic activities could alter the cell densities. Magnetic levitation offers great promise for separating cells at the single cell level within heterogeneous populations with respect to cell densities. Traditional magnetic levitation platforms need bulky and precise optical microscopes to visualize levitated cells. Moreover, the evaluation process of cell densities is cumbersome, which also requires trained personnel for operation. In this work, we introduce a device (HologLev) as a fusion of the magnetic levitation principle and lensless digital inline holographic microscopy (LDIHM). LDIHM provides ease of use by getting rid of bulky and expensive optics. By placing an imaging sensor just beneath the microcapillary channel without any lenses, recorded holograms are processed for determining cell densities through a fully automated digital image processing scheme. The device costs less than $100 and has a compact design that can fit into a pocket. We perform viability tests on the device by levitating three different cell lines (MDA-MB-231, U937, D1 ORL UVA) and comparing them against their dead correspondents. We also tested the differentiation of mouse osteoblastic (7F2) cells by monitoring characteristic variations in their density. Last, the response of MDA-MB-231 cancer cells to a chemotherapy drug was demonstrated in our platform. HologLev provides cost-effective, label-free, fully automated cell analysis in a compact design that could be highly desirable for laboratory and point-of-care testing applications.

    Magnetic Levitation-Based Protein Detection Using Lensless Digital Inline Holographic Microscopy
    (The Chemical and Biological Microsystems Society (CBMS), 2019) Yaman, Sena; Delikoyun, Kerem; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur
    We present a portable protein detection platform based on magnetic levitation principle integrated with a lensless imaging system. In the platform, polymer microspheres are used to capture selectively target proteins and magnetic nanoparticle labels. The imaging system monitors the levitation height change of polymer microspheres with respect to the presence of target protein on their surfaces. This system enables the detection of target proteins down to ng/mL levels in a short time. © 2019 CBMS-0001.

    Cell Separation With Hybrid Magnetic Levitation-Based Lensless Holographic Microscopy Platform
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Delikoyun, Kerem; Yaman, Sena; Anıl İnevi, Müge; Özçivici, Engin; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur
    Separation of target cells in a heterogeneous solution is of great importance for clinical studies especially for immunology and oncology. Separated cells can be used for diagnostic applications ranging from whole blood counting to isolation of circulating tumor cells (CTC) for personalized medicine. Recent separation technologies rely on labelling and identifying target cells with variety of labelling principle such as fluorescence or magnetic tags. However, they require labor-intensive processes, long analysis time, and expensive chemical reagents and instrumentation. Hence, their usage is limited to well-equipped centralized laboratories. There is a need for a rapid, sensitive, low-cost and automated cell separation technology to disseminate usage of this technology even in rural areas. Magnetic levitation is a powerful cell separation method, which distinguishes cells based on their levitation heights depending on cell density. However, magnetic levitation-based separation technologies require traditional, bulky and expensive microscopes for analysis. Lensless digital inline holographic microscopy (LDIHM) systems are composed of a simple illumination system containing an LED, a pinhole, and an imaging sensor for high-resolution microscopic imaging, which eliminates needs of highly fragile and expensive optics as in traditional microscopy. Here, we introduced a novel hybrid and portable cell separation platform, where magnetic levitation technology is integrated with LDIHM system for automated analysis of cell levitation heights. Using this platform, three different cell lines are successfully separated. Live and dead cells having distinguished levitation heights can be also identified in the platform.

    Density-Based Separation of Microparticles Using Magnetic Levitation Technology Integrated on Lensless Holographic Microscopy Platform
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Delikoyun, Kerem; Yaman, Sena; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur
    Microparticle/cell separation is one of the most important applications in the field of biomedical sciences particularly for cell sorting and protein assays. There are variety of different separation technologies introduced in the literature that the main limitations are large amount of sample, expensive chemical use besides of requirement of a labeling procedure (i.e. fluorescent/magnetic labeling), complex machinery, and high operational costs. Magnetic levitation-based separation offers simple, rapid and precise separation of microparticles based on their densities by suspending them in a glass microcapillary between two opposing magnets. Traditionally, magnetic levitation-based microparticle separation and identification procedure is performed by imaging under bulky microscopes composed of fragile and expensive optics and require trained personnel to operate which makes the whole procedure costly, time consuming and prone to human error. Lensless digital inline holographic microscope (LDIHM) eliminates the need for sophisticated optics by replacing simple illumination and recording scheme that can be reduced into few widely-Available and cost-effective components. Thus, inspection procedure is mostly carried out on digitally processing captured holograms so that dependency on optical components and human error is dramatically reduced alongside using cost-effective and handheld device. Here, we introduce a novel hybrid platform that brings the advantages of magnetic levitation system with lensless digital inline holographic microscope for precise separation and identification of microparticles based on their densities. In the platform, it was shown that 1.026 g/mL and 1.090 g/mL microparticles were successfully identified. © 2019 IEEE.

    (IEEE, 2019) Anıl İnevi, Müge; Sarıgil, Öykü; Yaman, Sena; Yalçın Özuysal, Özden; Meşe, Gülistan; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Özçivici, Engin
    Gravity is an important biomechanical signal effecting the morphology and function of organisms. Reduction of gravitational forces, as experienced during spaceflight, cause alterations in the biological systems. Magnetic levitation technique is one of the most recent ground-based technology to mimic weightlessness environment. In addition to providing a platform to investigate biological effects of the weightlessness, this platform presents a novel opportunity to biofabricate 3-dimensional (3D) structures in a scaffold-and nozzle-free fashion. In this study, various controllable self-assembled 3D living structures were fabricated via magnetic levitation technique. This strategy may offer an easy and cost-effective opportunity for a wide range of space biotechnology researches.

    Biofabrication of in Situ Self Assembled 3d Cell Cultures in a Weightlessness Environment Generated Using Magnetic Levitation
    (Nature Publishing Group, 2018) Anıl İnevi, Müge; Yaman, Sena; Arslan Yıldız, Ahu; Meşe, Gülistan; Yalçın Özuysal, Özden; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Özçivici, Engin
    Magnetic levitation though negative magnetophoresis is a novel technology to simulate weightlessness and has recently found applications in material and biological sciences. Yet little is known about the ability of the magnetic levitation system to facilitate biofabrication of in situ three dimensional (3D) cellular structures. Here, we optimized a magnetic levitation though negative magnetophoresis protocol appropriate for long term levitated cell culture and developed an in situ 3D cellular assembly model with controlled cluster size and cellular pattern under simulated weightlessness. The developed strategy outlines a potential basis for the study of weightlessness on 3D living structures and with the opportunity for real-time imaging that is not possible with current ground-based simulated weightlessness techniques. The low-cost technique presented here may offer a wide range of biomedical applications in several research fields, including mechanobiology, drug discovery and developmental biology.
