Introduction Tissue barriers regulate the absorption of nutrients, maintain homeostasis, and prevent toxins from entering. As previously introduced, trans-epithelial/endothelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurements offer a non-destructive and real-time method to quantitatively evaluate the integrity of tissue barriers. During the process,…

A Power-free Pneumatic System for Controlling Fluid Flow
Introduction When searching for a flow control system for microfluidic cell culture, we look to balance the ease of use, accessibility, and precision of fluidic control. For instance, researchers have explored different powered actuation methods for miniaturized precise proportional fluid…
Development of a TEER module for barrier tissue characterization
Introduction Tissue barriers separate different compartments of body organs. These barriers regulate the absorption of nutrients, maintain homeostasis, and prevent toxins from entering. In vitro models of tissue barriers have been developed to understand human diseases and investigate drug toxicity…
