Optical sensor for a pancreas-on-a-chip
In our recent paper, highlighted in Physics Magazine, we interfaced state-of-the-art on-chip LSPR sensing platform together with a biomimetic pancreatic islet-on-a-chip device to monitor insulin secretion in situ.
The developed platform offers a powerful tool to study how microtissues respond to external stimuli; a milestone for applications bypassing animal testing such as drug-screening platform for human models.
