Abstract

This paper presents a micro-device to study how medium flow affects cell growth associated with soluble factors in culture medium. A design with medium reservoirs has been included to rescue cells from the problem of soluble factor and material compatibility. Moreover, two different cell assays, apoptosis assay and genetic manipulation, were demonstrated using the same micro-device.
