Lung-on-a-chip
text:
The lung-on-a-chip is an organ-on-a-chip device modelling a living, breathing human lung on a microchip. The lung-on-a-chip places two layers of living tissues—the lining of the lung's air sacs and the blood vessels that surround them—across a porous, flexible boundary. Air is delivered to the lung lining cells, a rich culture medium flows in the capillary channel to mimic blood, and cyclic mechanical stretching is generated by a vacuum applied to the chambers adjacent to the cell culture channe
