Summary of COMSOL simulations for Endohm TEER measurements
This is the final post (hopefully) summarizing my simulation results I did to model Endohm system. Barrett used endohm cup system to do the coculture of bEnd3 and glial cells for his BBB studies. The resistance values obtained while using pncSi and uniformly porous membrane for cell growth were drastically different, and it was not very…
Paper for Review: Nanoporous Parylene for Ultrafiltration
If you know me at all, you know I enjoy nothing more than ultrafiltration and Parylene-C deposition. Now these activities are combined into one device to improve the biocompatibility (platelet activation and adhesion) of nanoporous membranes. In this letter, polyethersulfone (PES) membranes were coated with Parylene-C, poly(chloro-para-xylylene) aka (PCPX), while glycerin vapors rising through the…
Applied and Required Force Comparison of TE and NPN
ByAslanHello Everyone, So i decided to do some calculations on our 2 different sets of experiments (Track Etched and NPN) and compare the applied and the required force of them, in addition to making sure that we are applying enough force on the particles to keep them captured. The experiment conditions for both TE and…
SiN-NP in 50 nm SiN
Using a 6″ wafer, we start with 50 nm of RV SiN, then deposit 40 nm a-Si followed by 20 nm of SiO2. RTP of 1050 C, 100 C/s, 60s. JP patterned the wafer to make standard SEPCON chips. The pores were transferred to the SiN using RIE. The RIE etches faster at the perimeter…
BMES 2019 Recap: Organ-on-a-chip models with emphasis on modeling blood-brain barrier
There were lots of interesting talks and posters on organ-on-a-chip models with emphasis on modeling blood-brain barrier. I have selected four of them as a summary. 3D model of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma growth, migration and blood-brain barrier interactions Alanna M. Farrell, Raleigh M. Linville, Gabrielle N. Grifno, Peter C. Searson Johns Hopkins University, Department…

This belongs in a notebook. Data on the blog does not need to be polished, but it should in a form that communicates a result to others. If everyone uploaded their rawest data, the blog would be unbearable to read.
