Although bacterial chemotaxis behavior in a single gradient has been well studied,
chemotaxis of bacterial population in complex environments is not well understood. Here …

We present a novel microfluidic device that enables high sensitive analyses of the
chemotactic response of motile bacterial cells (Escherichia coli) that swim toward a preferred …

We report a microfluidic device that can rapidly and accurately generate various
concentration gradients in a controllable manner for the chemotaxis study of motile bacterial …

This paper describes the use of a simple microfluidic device for studying T cell chemotaxis.
The microfluidic device is fabricated in poly (dimethylsiloxane)(PDMS) using soft-lithography …

Biological functions are typically performed by groups of cells that express predominantly
the same genes, yet display a continuum of phenotypes. While it is known how one …

During eukaryotic chemotaxis, external chemical gradients guide the crawling motion of
cells. This process plays an important role in a large variety of biological systems and has …

Studies on chemotaxis in microfluidics device have become a major area of research to
generate physiologically similar environment in vitro. In this work, a novel micro-fluidic …

Microfluidic devices can better control cellular microenvironments compared to conventional
cell migration assays. Over the past few years, microfluidics-based chemotaxis studies …

Cells sense and interpret chemical gradients, and respond by localized responses that lead
to directed migration. An open microfluidic device (OMD) was developed to provide …

We demonstrate a method for the generation of controlled, dynamic chemical
pulses―where localized chemoattractant becomes suddenly available at the microscale―to …
