Mucociliary clearance analysis - MucilAir
Microbeads of 30 microns are seeded onto the apical surface of MucilAir. The particle movement
is then tracked using dedicated software for calculating velocities of beads’ movement.

Boda et al. Antiviral drug screening by assessing epithelial functions and innate immune responses in human 3D airway epithelium modelAntiviral research. 2018
Virus-induced impairement of mucociliary function
All other virusesRV-B, OC43 and non infected
All viruses block mucociliary clearance except rhinovirus B and coronavirus OC43
Conclusion
▪ ALI 3D Human Airway Models like MucilAir™ and SmallAir™ are
useful tools to study viral pathogenesis
✓ Isolation and characterization of difficult to growth viruses
✓ Identification of cytotoxic viruses (H3N2 and EV-D68)
✓ Visualization of viral persistence in absence of immune cells
▪ Novel test strategies using ALI 3D Human Airway Models allows
evaluation of broad spectrum of antivirals
