Additionally, isolated human cell models lack the architectural and functional maturity of human tissues when studied outside the body, explained Tavakol. Cue the multi-organ-on-a-chip (multi-OOC ...

The concept of the lab-on-a-chip, or micro-total analytical system, is intricately linked to the idea of single-use. The majority of microfluidic, lab-on-chip or point-of-care devices are made out ...

OOAC systems are the creation of representative 3D human organs linked by microfluidic ... create a human on a chip that would allow scientists to watch how the entire body responds to a drug.
