Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, MEMS devices that allow to realize measurements and control of physical environment of cells were developed. The developed MEMS devices are for experiments of cell responses to mechanical environment, cell responses to chemical environment and cell migration. For the experiment of cell mechanical responses, it was confirmed to apply different level of fluid shear stress to endothelial cells cultured in a microwell to perform flow experiments. For the experiment of cell chemical responses, it was confirmed to apply different concentration of Saponin solution to endothelial cells to perform live/dead cell assay. For cell migration assay, mechanical characterization of fibroblast migration could be performed by using a micropillar array.
