Abstract :
This paper reports the fabrication, combinatorial differentiation and analysis of embryonic bodies (EBs) in one device called “PASCL (Pneumatically Actuated Spheroids Culture Lab-on-chip)”. We demonstrated EBs formation from human adipose derived stem cells (ADSC), differentiation into adipocytes and osteoblasts and staining for differentiation monitoring all in one PASCL.
