3 Water Toxicity Monitoring using Optical Oxygen Sensing and Respirometry
Approximately one third of available freshwater is currently used for agricultural, industrial or domestic purposes. This results in contamination of the water with a wide range of pollutants originating from ~300 million tons of compounds used in industrial and consumer products, ~140 million tons of fertilizers, several million tons of pesticides, 0.4 million tons from oil and gasoline spilla...
متن کاملOptical Oxygen Sensors for Applications in Microfluidic Cell Culture
The presence and concentration of oxygen in biological systems has a large impact on the behavior and viability of many types of cells, including the differentiation of stem cells or the growth of tumor cells. As a result, the integration of oxygen sensors within cell culture environments presents a powerful tool for quantifying the effects of oxygen concentrations on cell behavior, cell viabil...
متن کاملGeneration of oxygen gradients in microfluidic devices for cell culture using spatially confined chemical reactions.
This paper reports a microfluidic device capable of generating oxygen gradients for cell culture using spatially confined chemical reactions with minimal chemical consumption. The microfluidic cell culture device is constructed by single-layer polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic channels, in which the cells can be easily observed by microscopes. The device can control the oxygen gradients ...
متن کاملOptical imaging in microfluidic bioreactors enables oxygen monitoring for continuous cell culture.
For the first time, a fluorescence lifetime calibration method for an oxygen-sensitive dye ruthenium tris(2,2'-dipyridyl) dichloride hexahydrate (RTDP) is applied to image oxygen levels in poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) bioreactors containing living C2C12 mouse myoblasts. PDMS microsystems are broadly used in bioengineering applications due to their biocompatibility and ease of handling. For th...
متن کامل3d Cell Culture Using Monodisperse Peptide Hydrogel Beads
We describe a three-dimensional (3D) cell culture system using monodisperse peptide hydrogel beads. We utilized a self-assembling peptide hydrogel to provide cells in vivo-like microenvironment. We succeeded in encapsulating endothelial cells within the hydrogels by using a 3D microfluidic axisymmetric flow-focusing device (AFFD), and showed the encapsulated endothelial cells were viable and we...
