Research Abstract |
Recently, integration of chemical process such as analysis and synthesis has been focused on. For further integration, peripheral tools such as pumps is also indispensable to be integrated. However, mechanical devices usually require electricity, and thus, current technology has a limitation of integration. On the other hand, cardiovascular cells or tissue are really integrated components with sophisticated chemical and mechanical functions in micro size. By exploiting this, ultra highly integrated microfluidic devices will be realized. Based on this concept, new conceptual bio-microdevices were developed by sophistically combining microstructures and cell/tissue functions in this project.
