    Abstract: A method for cell classification performs a compressive Raman measurement of a cell sample that involves frequency filtering the dispersed optical signal by a tunable optical filter whose frequency response is defined by weights that were derived from trained weights of a first hidden layer of a neural network trained on Raman spectra of cells and corresponding labels. The frequency filtered signals are detected by an optical detector to produce a compressive Raman measurement. Multiple compressive Raman measurements are then input to a prediction neural network to predict a label of the cell sample. The prediction neural network is the same as the trained neural network except without the input layer and the weights of the first hidden layer.

    Abstract: Apparatus for processing life-based organic particles, including particles selected from the list comprising cells, cellular spheroids, tissues, eukaryotes, micro-organisms, organs or embryos, comprises a hollow volume (10) that (a) is internally divided into at least first (14), second (16) and third (17) sub-volumes by at least two phaseguides (12, 13) formed inside the volume and (b) includes parts that are relatively upstream and relatively downstream when judged with reference to the movement of a meniscus or a bulk liquid in the volume (10). The apparatus includes at least first, second and third fluid conduits (19, 21, 22) connected to permit fluid communication between the upstream exterior of the volume (10) and a respective said sub-volume (14, 16, 17); and at least one further conduit (24) connected to permit fluid communication between the downstream exterior of the volume (10) and a said sub-volume. The first sub-volume (14) contains one or more life-based particles supported in or by a gel or gel-like substance; and the second sub-volume (16) communicates with the first sub-volume so as to permit transport of substances between the first and second sub-volumes (14, 16) and contains at least one gel or gel-like substance.

    Abstract: Deoxynojirimycin and deoxygalactonojirimycin derivatives according to the present invention are N-alkylated D-galacto, D-gluco- or L-ido-deoxynojirimycin with a linear methyloxypentyl group bearing various sidegroups and a non-fused bicyclic aromatic group (“X”) on the methyloxy-carbon. Formula (I), Formula (Ia). These compounds display an increased inhibitory potency towards GCS, and/or an increased inhibitory potency towards GBA2, and/or a decreased inhibitory potency towards GBA1, relative to known deoxynojirimycin derivatives of the same (D-gluco, L-ido or D-galacto) configuration. Therefore, compounds of the present invention are effective in the treatment of diseases which are associated with an irregular level of cytosolic or lysosomal glucosylceramide and/or higher glycosphingolipids, such as a lysosomal storage disorder, such as Gaucher disease, Fabry disease, Tay-Sachs disease, Sandhoff disease, GM1 gangliosidosis, Sialidosis, Niemann Pick disease type C and AMRF, or a symptom of one of the diseases collectively classed as metabolic syndrome, such as obesity, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, polycystic kidney disease, type II diabetes and chronic inflammation, or a neurodenegerative disorder, such as Parkinson disease or Lewy-body dementia.
