Fabrication of microfluidic hydrogels using molded gelatin as a sacrificial element
Abstract
This paper describes a general procedure for the formation of hydrogels that contain microfluidic networks. In this procedure, micromolded meshes of gelatin served as sacrificial materials. Encapsulation of gelatin meshes in a hydrogel and subsequent melting and flushing of the gelatin left behind interconnected channels in the hydrogel. The channels were as narrow as approximately 6 microm, and faithfully replicated the features in the original gelatin mesh. Fifty micrometre wide microfluidic networks in collagen and fibrin readily enabled delivery of macromolecules and particles into the channels and transport of macromolecules from channels into the bulk of the gels. Microfluidic gels were also suitable as scaffolds for cell culture, and could be seeded by human microvascular endothelial cells to form rudimentary endothelial networks for potential use in tissue engineering.

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.
