Abstract

Provided herein is a method for analyzing the affect of at least one agent on a cell or cellular component using an analysis system. The method includes wrapping a droplet in an immiscible carrier fluid using a droplet generator wherein the wrapped droplet includes at least one cell or cellular component and at least one agent. The wrapped droplet then flows through the analysis system using a siphoning effect. The droplet is then analyzed to determine effect of the agent on the cell or cellular component.
