Abstract

Here, we present a microfluidic platform for establishing continuous perfusion in transwell-based in-vitro barrier models. We developed a poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA)-based microfluidic device, which allows for dynamic control of culture microenvironments in both, apical and basolateral compartments of cell-covered transwell inserts. We demonstrate the use of the device for high-resolution confocal imaging of the barrier models.
