1. 1. Design improvements for an Organ-on-chip system : Implementation and evaluation of a bubble trap

   Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

   Författare :Albin Jonasson; Linnéa Soto Carlsson; [2022]
   Nyckelord :Organ-on-chip; Microfluidics; Lab-on-chip; Lab-on-a-chip; bubble trap; epithelial; endothelial; cells; biomedical engineering; chip; TEER; Mikrofluidik; labb-på-chip; organ-på-chip; medicinsk teknik; medicinteknik; TEER; bubbelfälla; epitelceller; endotelceller;

   Sammanfattning : The field of organ-on-chip is a relatively new area of research and builds upon the principle of engineering microfluidic systems to mimic the body’s internal environment as precisely as possible. Eventually these models could hopefully simulate whole organ-systems and enable the examination of the cell’s or organ’s reaction to foreign substances like new pharmaceuticals in a better way than current models.

3. 2. The influence of astrocytes and their culturing environment on blood-brain barrier modeling in a microfluidic chip

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Författare :Michaela Hällevall; [2017]
   Nyckelord :Blood-brain barrier; Organs-on-chip; BBB-on-chip; Astrocytes; Hydrogels; Microfluidics; Technology and Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a highly selective barrier separating the brain from the circulatory system. The physical barrier is built up by a monolayer of endothelial cells, which is the main component used for in vitro modeling. LÄS MER
