Abstract

We fabricated micro flow channel based on the collagen tunnel for in vitro BBB blood capirary model using collagen gel tunnel, PDMS and infrared laser. This flow channel system can add the influence of shear stress to EC and evaluate the permeability by continuous microfluidic flow during cultivation. This system is expected to become a novel tool for emulating in vivo permeability of drug candidates available only in small quantities.
