Abstract

The invention discloses a micro-fluidic chip for cell migration and a preparation method of the micro-fluidic chip. The micro-fluidic chip is provided with a flow layer, a control layer, a film layerand a glass layer from top to bottom; the flow layer consists of a pyramid-shaped network structure, a cell culture zone, a cell migration zone, a main pipeline and a liquid inlet micro pipeline; andthe control layer consists of a plurality of micro valves. The invention also provides a preparation method of the micro-fluidic chip. A biochemical factor / medicine concentration gradient is formed inthe main pipeline and the cell migration area, the effect of the biochemical factors / medicine of different concentrations for the cell migration can be researched in a same chip, and the conventionalmode for researching the effect of the single-concentration biochemical factor / medicine for the cell migration is broken through. The invention can also realize the environment construction of an extracellular matrix and co-culture of target cells and matrix cells, and the micro-fluidic chip is used for researching the haptotaxis of the extracellular matrix and the matrix cell for the target cell. Therefore, the cell migration can be researched by combining the biochemical factor / medicine concentration gradient and cell micro environment simulation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a microfluidic chip and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a microfluidic chip and a preparation method thereof for studying cell migration in combination with cell microenvironment simulation and biochemical factor / drug concentration gradient. Background technique [0002] Microfluidics integrates the basic operating units of sample preparation, reaction, separation, and detection in biological, chemical, and medical analysis processes into a chip of a few square centimeters, and automatically completes the entire analysis process. Due to its great potential in the research and application of biology, chemistry, medicine and other fields, it has developed into a new research field interdisciplinary in biology, chemistry, medicine, fluid, electronics, materials, machinery and so on. At present, widely used biochips (micro-arrays), such as gene chips and protein chips, are just dot-array hybridization chips with zero...
