Photopolymerization in Microfluidic Gradient Generators: Microscale Control of Substrate Compliance to Manipulate Cell Response
Abstract
Integration of a microfluidic gradient generator and photopolymerization to fabricate novel hydrogels with tunable mechanical properties on the microscale (see Figure) is reported. This concept introduces a new class of materials that can be used to investigate the role of substrate elastic moduli in controlling cell morphology and cytoskeletal organization, and more generally, cell behavior.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
