Abstract

The present invention devices and methods for maximizing the number of wells that can be imaged at one time while still obtaining adequate pixel resolution in the image. This result has been achieved through the use of fluidic architectures that maximizes well density. The present invention thus provides a miniaturized microplate system with closed fluidic volumes that are internally supplied with fluid exchange, and with wells that are closely spaced to more rapidly detect spatially-resolved features of individual cells.
