  • Patent number: 9663751
    Abstract: The present disclosure illustrates a platform system for in vitro cell co-cultivation with automatic trapping function. The platform system aims to develop a bio-chip applied in cell culture systems, and has several features. The first feature is that this co-cultivation platform can construct a micro environment suitable for culture of various cells. The second feature is dynamic perfusion. The microfluidic system is used to dynamically replace the culture medium, in order to maintain an appropriate environment for the growth of cells. The third feature is the automatic trapping. The cells to be cultured can be trapped in a suitable location according to the flow resistance, so that the damaged on the cell caused by manual operation can be minimized.
    Type: Grant
