Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We propose a novel platform which consists of a cubic artificial eggshell containing a chick embryo for cardiovascular simulations. The cubic eggshell with PDMS membrane allows the total amount of oxygen to pass into the egg for the chick embryo culturing. In this project, we newly developed both a new methodology to induce blood vessels into multiple PDMS channels and a tele-operated 3-DOF micromanipulator to realize the proposed platform.
