Testis Micro Early Diagnosis Kit — laboratory image

Testis Micro is an early-diagnosis kit that brings together human-focused microchip technology and test-specific cell lines for preclinical research. A testis-specific microchip hosts 3D cell culture that mimics the physiological environment, and candidate drugs and chemical substances are evaluated in that setting.

The model rests on a cell culture model built with a Lab-on-a-Chip approach to study the dynamics of the blood–testis barrier within the testicular microenvironment. It provides a basis for permeability studies in reproductive biology and pharmacology.

Nasıl çalışıyor?

  1. Human-specific cell lines
