The article “Low-cost microphysiological systems: Feasibility study of a tape-based barrier-on-chip system for small intestine modeling” was published in Lab on a Chip today. The research highlights the use of simple double-sided tape to assemble an organ-on-a-chip system with human gut as a model, replacing the typically used expensive techniques and materials. This method will prove to be a robust and reproducible approach to studying physiological barriers, promising faster development of new drugs and precision and personalized medicine.
