Abstract

We describe the design, fabrication, and performance of a bioreactor that enables both morphogenesis of 3D tissue structures under continuous perfusion and repeated in situ observation by light microscopy. Three‐dimensional scaffolds were created by deep reactive ion etching of silicon wafers to create an array of channels (through‐holes) with cell‐adhesive walls. Scaffolds were combined with a cell‐retaining filter and support in a reactor housing designed to deliver a continuous perfusate across the top of the array and through the 3D tissue mass in each channel. Reactor dimensions were constructed so that perfusate flow rates meet estimated values of cellular oxygen demands while providing fluid shear stress at or below a physiological range (<2 dyne cm 2), as determined by comparison of numerical models of reactor fluid flow patterns to literature values of physiological shear stresses. We studied the behavior of primary rat hepatocytes seeded into the reactors and cultured for up to 2 weeks, and found that cells seeded into the channels rearranged extensively to form tissue like structures and remained viable throughout the culture period. We further observed that preaggregation of the cells into spheroidal structures prior to seeding improved the morphogenesis of tissue structure and maintenance of viability. We also demonstrate repeated in situ imaging of tissue structure and function using two‐photon microscopy. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Biotechnol Bioeng 78: 257–269, 2002.

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.
