Abstract

See full text

Microfluidic devices and processes are provided that relate to microvascular-sized systems configured to identify specific pathophysiological characteristics related to the interactions between, for example, blood cells and endothelial cells combined with geometric and flow constraints of microvasculature. The device may include at least one layer, the layer including a plurality of microvascularized-sized fluidic channels, the plurality of microfluidic channels being disposed in a geometric pattern. The layer may be composed of a hydrogel and/or a silicon elastomer. The channels may include subchannels of different lengths.
