Microfluidic chip of concentration gradient and fluid shear stress on a single cell level

         

摘要

Concentration gradient and fluid shear stress(FSS)for cell microenvironment were investigated through microfluidic technology.The Darcy–Weisbach equation combined with computational fluid dynamics modeling was exploited to design the microfluidic chip,and the FSS distribution on the cell model with varying micro-channels(triangular,conical,and elliptical).The diffusion with the incompressible laminar flow model by solving the time-dependent diffusion–convection equation was applied to simulate the gradient profiles of concentration in the micro-channels.For the study of single cell in-depth,the FSS was investigated by the usage of polystyrene particles and the concentration diffusion distribution was studied by the usage of different colors of dyes.A successful agreement between model simulations and experimental data was obtained.Finally,based on the established method,the communication between individual cells was envisaged and modeled.The developed method provides valuable insights and allows to continuously improve the design of microfluidic devices for the study of single cell,the occurrence and development of tumors,and therapeutic applications.
