DynamicOrgan® System

The open organ-on-chip platform

Build human in vitro disease and infection models with the DynamicOrgan® System. An organ-on-a-chip system that will help you get greater and more meaningful insights into human biology swiftly and without capital spending.

 

The DynamicOrgan® System will include a peristaltic pump and a kit with all required consumables to get started with organ-on-chip technology in your own lab. The kit can be selected depending on the organ model or application that you would like to develop. Take a test to find out which DynamicOrgan® Developers Kit you need.

What is Organ-on-Chip Technology?

Simulate human organ function

Organ-on-chip technology replicates the structure and function of human organs on miniaturized biochips. These advanced in vitro models simulate key physiological responses and tissue interactions, enabling human-relevant data generation for preclinical drug development and biomedical research.

 

Unlike standard 2D cell culture or animal models, organ-on-chip systems capture the complexity of human biology including perfusion, immune response, and microbiome interactions, offering a new level of predictive power for human applications.

Physiological flow conditions

Different flow patterns can be achieved through the perfusion of the tissues via microfluidic pumps: pulsatile and laminar – such as in the healthy human body. The perfusion provides a crucial mechanical stimulation on the surface of human cells, especially cells from the human blood vessel system (vasculature). These shear forces influence and stimulate receptor decoration on the cell surfaces and have consequently a profound impact on cellular behavior such as growth, signaling/ interaction and metabolism.

The biochip

Biochips with cell culture chambers, biological or biocompatible artificial membranes and a variety of channel geometries provide the conceptual basis for organ-on-chip technology. The channels of such biochips are used to introduce human cells of an organ into the cell culture chamber, to arrange, combine and separate these cells in an in vivo-like fashion and to supply these cells continuously with nutrients. They provide a frame to implement in vivo-like flow patterns similar to the human blood stream inside an in vitro model.

Membrane – tissue interface and scaffold

The integrated membranes serve as scaffold to arrange human cells, to provide them structural support and a flexible substrate that can mediate mechanical stimulation. Here, complex tissues and tissue-tissue interfaces are created that facilitate intense cell-cell communication, signaling and transport processes.

Integration of immune component

The immune system is a critical component of the human body, playing a vital role in protecting against infections, eliminating diseased cells, and maintaining tissue homeostasis. Via integration of resident and circulating immune cells, organ-on-a-chip models can replicate the cellular complexity of the human immune system.

Integration of a microbiome and pathogens

Complex organ models allow for the integration of a microbiome or pathogens to enable the establishment of complex disease and infection models.
