Microfluidic serial dilution circuit.
In vitro evolution of RNA molecules requires a method for executing many consecutive serial dilutions. To solve this problem, a microfluidic circuit has been fabricated in a three-layer glass-PDMS-glass device. The 400-nL serial dilution circuit contains five integrated membrane valves: three two-way valves arranged in a loop to drive cyclic mixing of the diluent and carryover, and two bus valv...
متن کاملcharacterization of in vitro cultivated amastigote like of leishmania major: a substitution for in vivo studies
background: promastigotes of leishmania spp. have been readily cultured, but the axenic culture of amastigotes has been successful in l. donovani , l .infantum l. mexicana and l. pifanoi . however, some species such as l. major, is much less amenable to axenic cultivation. in present study, we describe an in vitro culture system for the generation and propagation of axenic amastigotes form of l...
متن کاملLiver-kidney Microfluidic Bioreactor for Cell Coculture in Drug Studies
A microfluidic bioreactor for cell co-culture has been developed to study the cytotoxicity of xenobiotics in multiorgan interaction models. In this paper, we investigate the drug metabolism of ifosfamide, an anticancer drug, in liver and its impact on kidney. HepG2/C3A (liver) and MDCK (kidney) cells are cultured in two separate PDMS chambers connected by a perfusion loop mimicking blood flow. ...
متن کاملBlood compatible microfluidic system for pharmacokinetic studies in small animals.
New radiotracer developments for nuclear medicine imaging require the analysis of blood as a function of time in small animal models. A microfluidic device was developed to monitor the radioactivity concentration in the blood of rats and mice in real time. The microfluidic technology enables a large capture solid angle and a reduction in the separation distance between the sample and detector, ...
متن کاملTransdermal Drug Delivery with Permeation Enhancer
Transdermal drug delivery (TDD) is used to deliver drugs through the skin as an alternative to oral, intravascular, and subcutaneous routes. While there are many advantages to TDD, skin is a very effective barrier and provides resistance to drug delivery. To improve drug delivery through the skin, permeation enhancers are used. We developed an axisymmetric COMSOL Multiphysics model of drug diff...
