Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering. Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering. Mechanical Engineering. Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 2010. Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (p. 48-51). A microfluidic system has been developed for studying the factors inducing different responses of cells in vascular system using a three-dimensional microenvironment. The devices have been transferred from PDMS to a platform in cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) which has advantages in terms of hydrophobicity, production by the more commercially-viable hot embossing technique, and amenability to surface treatments. Here the fabrication process is described and the new systems are characterized. Surface wettability, bond strength between the system body and a covering plastic film, and cell viability data are presented and compared to systems fabricated in PDMS. by Jessie Sungyun Jeon.
