Respiratory: Eosinophil – Inflammation – Adhesion Assay

25 Apr 2013

Cellix Ltd. has developed a novel Microfluidic Platform consisting of a PC-controlled Nanopump with microfluidic biochips and DucoCell analysis software. This application note describes the development of a microfluidic assay to assess the effect of levocetirizine on human eosinophil adhesion using the Cellix Microfluidic Platform.

Vena8 Endothelial+ Biochip: microfluidic flow chamber

Cellix Ltd

The Vena8 Endothelial+™ biochip is ideal for studying cell-cell interaction. Endothelial cells are easily seeded (via standard pipette) and cultured inside the microcapillaries of the biochip. As cells flow through the microcapillary of the Vena8 Endothelial+™ biochip, the cell surface receptors may interact with the endothelial cell monolayer which coats the microcapillary walls. Ideal for use with phase contrast imaging and fluorescence imaging to study cell-cell interactions under conditions mimicking physiological flow.
