MICROFLUIDIC DEVICE FOR STUDYING SHEAR STRESS AND TUMOR MIGRATION IN MICROCHANNEL AND METHOD OF ANALYZING CELLS USING THE MICROFLUIDIC DEVICE

摘要

The microfluidic device for studying the shear stress and the transition in the microchannel includes a microchamber, an inlet and an outlet for the fluid, and is formed around the microchamber and passes the fluid around the microchamber. It includes a plurality of groups of bridge channels connecting the microchannel and the microchamber at a plurality of locations, the cross-sectional area of the bridge channel is characterized in that less than the cross-sectional area of the microchannel.
