Abstract
We have developed a cell-based assay platform using a microfluidic device integrating a glucose sensor into a cell culture device with closed-loop perfusion. Online measurement of cell kinetic change associated with cell status change was achieved by measuring glucose concentration change in the device with a cell exposed to a toxic material. The cell-based assay platform, which is integrated with a sensor and a perfusion system, was expected to improve measurement accuracy and efficiency, leading to the discovery of new tools in such wide-ranging fields as drug discovery, life sciences, and medical research.
