Tissue Engineering

New tissue engineering study findings have been reported by researchers at Northeastern University

Published in Blood Weekly, May 13th, 2010

According to recent research from the United States, "The enrichment or isolation of selected cell types from heterogeneous suspensions is required in the area of tissue engineering. State of the art techniques utilized for this separation include preplating and sieve-based approaches that have limited ranges of purity and variable yield."

"Here, we present a deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) microfluidic device that is capable of separating large epithelial cells (17.3 +/- 2.7 in diameter) from smaller fibroblast cells (13.7 +/- 3.0 mu m in diameter) as a potential alternative approach. The mixed suspension examined is intended to represent the content of...
