“Organs-on-a-chip” (OOAC), involves microfluidics based biomaterial sciences, bio-engineering and cell biology majorly cell isolation and cell culturing aspects. This technology claims to develop 3-dimensional tissues structurally and physiologically in simulation to in vivo providing relevant results in terms of physiological and genetic aspects with virtue of its origin from human systems. In recent times, experts from diversified disciplines have developed and established many OOAC systems with an assertion of being perfect for drug research replacing convectional cell cultures and animal testing due to the technical limitations in the applicability of the same in vivo for systemic complexities and genetic variances. “Organs-on-a-chip” has attracted substantial interest for its wide range of applications in fields of drug research, regenerative medicine and personalized medicine. Successful development and establishments of different OOACs will contribute towards newer avenues in the path of precised personalized medicine. Keywords: Organs on a chip, personalized medicine, OOAC, 3D cell culture
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
