چکیده
Microfluidic technology is a valuable tool for realizing more in vitro models capturing cellular and organ level responses rapid animal-free risk assessment of new chemicals drugs. cell-based devices allow high-throughput screening flexible automation while lowering costs reagent consumption due to their miniaturization. There growing need faster approaches drug development safety (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation Restriction Chemical Substances, REACH). The work presented describes microfluidic platform vivo-like cell cultivation. It equipped with wafer-based silicon chip including integrated electrodes microcavity. A proof-of-concept using different relevant shows its suitability label-free cytotoxic effects. miniaturized microscope within each module monitors morphology proliferation. Electrodes the channels noninvasive monitoring barrier integrity followed by Each cultivation can be operated individually or interconnected way. interconnection modules aims at simulation whole-body exposure response contribute replacement animal testing studies compliance 3Rs replace, reduce, refine experiments.

A complete microfluidic screening platform for rational protein crystallization.
By virtue of their unique mass transport properties, dense integration, and low reagent consumption, microfluidic devices have emerged as viable technologies for protein crystallization. Current microfluidic crystallization technologies have focused on two separate strategies: one using the large-scale integration of active microvalves,1 and one using two-phase flows for the mixing and encapsul...
متن کاملIn Vitro Study of Cancer Cell Extravasation in Microfluidic Platform
Cancer metastases arise from the cancer cells that disseminate from the primary tumor, intravasate into the vascular system and eventually transmigrate across the endothelium into to a secondary site through a process of extravasation. Microfluidic systems have a major advantage in studying cancer extravasation since they can mimic aspects of the 3D in vivo situation in a controlled environment...
متن کاملIn vitro flow cytometry-based screening platform for cellulase engineering
Ultrahigh throughput screening (uHTS) plays an essential role in directed evolution for tailoring biocatalysts for industrial applications. Flow cytometry-based uHTS provides an efficient coverage of the generated protein sequence space by analysis of up to 10(7) events per hour. Cell-free enzyme production overcomes the challenge of diversity loss during the transformation of mutant libraries ...

this study intends to investigate samuel beckett’s waiting for godot and endgame under the lacanian psychoanalysis. it begins by explaining the most important concepts of lacanian psychoanalysis. the beckettian characters are studied regarding their state of unconscious, and not the state of consciousness as is common in most beckett studies. according to lacan, language plays the sole role in ...
Digital microfluidic platform for multiplexing enzyme assays: implications for lysosomal storage disease screening in newborns.
BACKGROUND Newborn screening for lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) has been gaining considerable interest owing to the availability of enzyme replacement therapies. We present a digital microfluidic platform to perform rapid, multiplexed enzymatic analysis of acid α-glucosidase (GAA) and acid α-galactosidase to screen for Pompe and Fabry disorders. The results were compared with those obtained ...
