As the critical component of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), proton
exchange membrane (PEM) determine its overall performance. Current PEMs hardly meet …

It is an emerging research area to integrate scaffolding materials in microfluidic devices for
3D cell culture (organs-on-a-chip). The technology of organs-on-a-chip holds the potential to …

The basement membrane (BM) of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), a thin extracellular matrix
(ECM) sheet underneath the brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs), plays crucial …

In biotechnology, the field of cell cultivation is highly relevant. Cultivated cells can be used,
for example, for the development of biopharmaceuticals and in tissue engineering …

Various perivascular drug delivery techniques have been demonstrated for localized post-
treatment of intimal hyperplasia: a vascular inflammatory response caused by endothelial …

Electrospinning has shown great potential in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
due to a high surface-area-to-volume ratio and an extracellular matrix-mimicking structure of …

3D cell models have made strides in the past decades in response to failures of 2D cultures
to translate targets during the drug discovery process. Here, we report on a novel multiwell …

An extracellular matrix (ECM) membrane made up of ECM hydrogels has great potentials to
develop a physiologically relevant organ-on-a-chip because of its biochemical and …

Hydrogels are soft materials with 3D cross‐linked networks of polymer chains that can
absorb and hold large amounts of water. Hydrogels have attracted great attention of both …

Traditional Transwell inserts with track‐etched 10 μm thick polymer membranes have been
intensively used for studying cellular barriers. However, their thickness hampers direct cell …
