Abstract
Molecular transport through permeable membranes offers a unique opportunity to investigate cellular responses to nutrients, drugs, or toxins delivered to the culture's apical and/or basal sides as well as cellular migration events. Herein, we present the means to rapidly localize and concentrate cells using dielectrophoresis (DEP) traps on opposing sides of a permeable membrane within a multilayer microfluidic device. This work establishes the possibility of generating on-chip cell co-cultures for high-throughput screening, similar to transwell chambers, but with the added benefits of the dynamic fluidic conditions from the microfluidic network and the rapid generation of cell cultures from DEP trapping.Proceedings Title
