This project aims to utilize the advantages of a microfluidic system to generate a testing apparatus that can be used in drug trials to observe the effects of different concentrations of nutrients or drugs on cell growth. With this proposed device drug research companies can save time, materials and money during the research and development phase. Critical aspects of the project include three areas: simulation, fabrication, and validation. This project is supported by GE Healthcare and is a continuation of a senior design project completed in the 2015 school year. By utilizing the COMSOL modeling software to simulate the microfluidic flow, accurate alterations can be made to the previous design to enhance the accuracy of the concentration gradient generator (CGG). The CGG will then be combined with a cell culturing well array to test and analyze cell growth in various concentrations.
