Temperature gradient stimulation for cell division in C. Elegans Embryos on chip
2010
Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences (MicroTAS 2010)
This paper reports on a new microfluidic device for temperature stimulation of cell in in-vitro culture. Micro- electrodes in a meander shape are embedded into the microfluidic channels to generate either a temperature gradient through the culture chamber or a local heat spot under specific cells. One promising application is the control of cell di- vision rate. Here we present first results of the synchronization of cell division in a two-cell stage embryos of C. Elegans.
