    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of detecting exosomes, including unlabeled exosomes. In some embodiments, the methods include disposing a fluidic sample that comprises a plurality of exosomes in a chamber that is positioned at least partially within a fluidic device in which an inner surface of the chamber comprises a first set of exosome binding moieties that are capable of binding the exosomes. In some embodiments, the methods also include binding a portion of the plurality of exosomes to a portion of the first set of exosome binding moieties to produce surface-bound exosomes, introducing an incident light toward the inner surface of the chamber prior to, concurrent with, and/or after, producing the surface-bound exosomes, and detecting light scattered by the surface-bound exosomes to produce a set of exosome imaging data. Related fluidic devices, systems, and computer readable media are also provided.

    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of detecting target molecules. The methods include contacting a sample comprising the target molecule with a substrate that comprises a plurality of capture antibodies, or antigen binding portions thereof, that specifically bind to the target molecule to form captured target molecules, and contacting the captured target molecules with a plurality of detection antibodies, or antigen binding portions thereof, that bind to the captured target molecules to form target molecule complexes. The methods also include taking images of the target molecule complexes to produce imaged target molecule complexes, and quantifying an amount of target molecules in the sample using the imaged target molecule complexes. Additional methods as well as related devices and systems are also provided.

    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of quantifying amounts of N-terminal prohormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in whole blood samples. The methods include contacting detection antibody-NT-proBNP complexes with a plurality of capture antibodies, or antigen binding portions thereof, that specifically bind to the NT-proBNP molecules of the detection antibody-NT-proBNP complexes to form captured NT-proBNP complexes, and contacting NPs that each comprise a second recognition moiety that binds to the first recognition moiety of the detection antibodies, or antigen binding portions thereof, of the captured NT-proBNP complexes to form captured NP-NT-proBNP complexes. The methods also include taking images of the captured NP-NT-proBNP complexes to produce imaged captured NP-NT-proBNP complexes using a detection mechanism, and quantifying an amount of NT-proBNP in the sample aliquots using the imaged captured NP-NT-proBNP complexes. Additional methods as well as related devices and systems are also provided.

    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of determining molecular binding kinetics on particles, such as magnetic nanoparticles. In some embodiments, the methods include introducing an incident light from a light source toward a sample container that comprises a particle-bound biomolecule-ligand composition comprising a plurality of particle-bound biomolecules and a plurality of ligands that binds, or is capable of binding, to biomolecules of the plurality of particle-bound biomolecules, detecting light scattered from particle-bound biomolecule-ligand complexes in the particle-bound biomolecule-ligand composition over a duration to produce a set of imaging data using the detector, and determining size or volume changes of one or more of the particle-bound biomolecule-ligand complexes during at least a portion of the duration from the set of imaging data to thereby determine the molecular binding kinetics on the particles. Related systems and computer readable media are also provided.

    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of tracking molecular dynamics in three dimensions. In some embodiments, the methods include introducing an incident light toward a second surface of a substrate to induce a plasmonic wave at least proximal to a first surface of the substrate. A population of particles is connected to the first surface of the substrate via one or more first biomolecules. In some embodiments, the methods also include detecting a change in position of the particles in the population along at least three dimensions over a duration from a change in intensity of the incident light reflected at an interface of the first surface of the substrate. Related systems and computer readable media are also provided.
