title = "A microfluidic blood-brain barrier platform comprised of intact and perfusable capillaries and astrocytes",
abstract = "A novel three dimensional blood-brain barrier (BBB) platform was developed by independently supplying different types of media to separate cell types within a device. One channel is connected to the inner lumen of the vascular network while the other supplies media to the neural cells. Compared to co-cultures supplied with only one type of medium, best barrier properties and viability were obtained with culturing huvecs with endothelial growth medium and neural cells with neurobasal medium supplemented with FBS independently. The measured vascular network permeability was comparable to reported in vivo values and a higher degree of neurovascular interfacing.",
