Sang Bok presented journal club on Analytical Chemistry paper regarding 'Microfluidic-based Western Blot';
Gill&Seila: Present preliminary results on fabricating PEG microgels and assembly using microfluidcs. Provide some comments on optimizing the microgel formation
Matt&Jiankang: Progress on the surface pattern-directed gradient generation
Fumiki: Present on assembly of PEG/alginate microgels to form macroporous 3D tissue sheet.
Some suggestions include: Clarify the formula derived by yourself (static vs. dynamic); Consider the role of Glucose (instead of Oxygen), when doing the LIVE/DEAD, consider 3D effect, study the center portion with care.
