This organ-on-a-chip provides 3 bifurcation designs on one chip to mimic blood vessels. This is particularly interesting for the study of endothelium biology through a physiological model. This system is designed to study the local flow conditions at the bifurcation.
General
With 3 bifurcation designs in one system, this organ-on-chip is ideal for performing parallel experiments modeling blood vessel geometry associated with a physiological flow of medium, cells, and/or particles or interest. The Y bifurcation design comes with a bifurcation angle of 90° and fully circular channels for more physiological modeling.
These organ-on-chips devices are sold in packs of 3 chips with 3 Y designs on each chip. The chips are made of PDMS and glass and are thus, autoclavable, biocompatible, gas permeable, and can be imaged with high optical quality.
