    Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for Viability Analysis Directly From Cell Holograms Captured Using Lensless Holographic Microscopy
    (The Chemical and Biological Microsystems Society (CBMS), 2019) Delikoyun, Kerem; Çine, Ersin; Anıl İnevi, Müge; Özçivici, Engin; Özuysal, Mustafa; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur
    Cell viability analysis is one of the most widely used protocols in the fields of biomedical sciences. Traditional methods are prone to human error and require high-cost and bulky instrumentations. Lensless digital inline holographic microscopy (LDIHM) offers low-cost and high resolution imaging. However, recorded holograms should be digitally reconstructed to obtain real images, which requires intense computational work. We introduce a deep transfer learning-based cell viability classification method that directly processes the hologram without reconstruction. This new model is only trained once and viability of each cell can be predicted from its hologram. © 2019 CBMS-0001.

    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.

    Lensless Digital In-Line Holographic Microscopy for Space Biotechnology Applications
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Delikoyun, Kerem; Çine, Ersin; Anıl İnevi, Müge; Özuysal, Mustafa; Özçivici, Engin; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur
    Biomechanical changes at cellular level can dramatically affect living organisms in both aviation and space applications. Weightlessness induces morphological alteration of cells, which leads to tissue loss. Therefore, scientists have been studying the effect of weightlessness using cell culture based biological experiments using conventional microscopes. However, strict requirements regarding cost, weight and functionality limit the use of conventional microscopes in space environment. Lensless digital in-line holographic microscopy enables to use low-weight, low-cost and robust elements, such as a light emitting diode (LED), an aperture and an imaging sensor, instead of bulky, expensive and fragile optical elements, such as lenses, mirrors and filters. This technology offers a high field of view compared to conventional microscopes without affecting the resolution and it is also suitable for remote sensing applications with automated imaging capabilities. Here, we present a portable digital in-line holographic microscopy platform that allows to visualize cells and to analyze their viability in a microfluidic chip. The platform offers microscopic imaging with 1.55 mu m spatial resolution, 21.7 mm(2) field of view and image coloring capability. This platform could potentially play an important role in space biotechnology applications by enabling low-cost, high-resolution and portable monitoring of cells.

    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.
