Design and Construction of a Multi-Organ Microfluidic Chip Mimicking the in vivo Microenvironment of Lung Cancer Metastasis.

Metastasis is a complex pathophysiological process. As the main cause of cancer mortality in humans it represents a serious challenge to both basic researchers and clinicians. Here we report the design and construction of a multi-organ microfluidic chip that closely mimics the in vivo microenvironment of lung cancer metastasis.

An integrated microfluidic chip for the detection of bacteria - A proof of concept.

We designed a microfluidic chip as a proof of concept for the detection of bacterial DNA. The chip was fabricated with poly-dimethylsiloxane (PDMS). It included a solid phase extraction (SPE) chamber, two separate channels and multiple loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) chambers.
