Many organs-on-a-chip and microphysiological systems (MPS) are too small
to allow recovery of sufficient cells for convenient flow cytometric
analysis. This presentation will describe transitioning of microfluidic
organs-on-a-chip system to mesoscale systems compatible with automated
flow cytometry. The presentation will describe some of the underlying
engineering technologies along with accompanying biomedical applications
of the technologies. Additionally, this presentation will discuss some
of the standardization opportunities and challenges for these systems
with example applications to lung diseases.
