14:15 Working Session 3 : Microfluidics Hot Seat
Pitches from early stage microfluidics enabled
companies seeking to engage with the MF8 Consortium
Monika Weber Fluid-Screen
In 2015, how do scientists test the water supply to see if it’s contaminated with dangerous bacteria (e.g. E. coli) after runoff from heavy storms has overwhelmed the capacity of the treatment plant? How does the QA team in a food-processing plant assure that the latest batch of hot dogs is safe? How do physicians determine whether their patients’ infections are really bacterial rather than viral so they don’t prescribe antibiotics unnecessarily, thus contributing to the emerging “super-bug” crisis − resistant strains of bacteria? Pretty much the same way scientists have been doing it for more than 100 years.
Since the early 20th century, the standard method to detect dangerous bacteria has been to collect a sample, send it out to a lab, and wait 24 to 48 hours to grow a culture and report results. Fluid-Screen aims to change all that so that QA scientists and clinicians have the critical results they need where and when they need them to assure product quality, public health, and safety − or make better, more-informed treatment decisions.
The company has developed a breakthrough hand-held bacterial detection and identification system that provides rapid (~30-minute) results for applications ranging from municipal water quality assurance through agricultural and manufacturing processes to point-of-care diagnostics.
Roshan Kumar HiFiBio
Our unique platform utilizes droplet microfluidics for high throughput, single-cell, function-based screening of entire antibody secreting B-cell populations. Following single-cell-specific barcoding and next-generation sequencing, we generate paired V-gene sequences from the sorted B-cells. These target specific V-gene repertoires are then efficiently and rapidly converted to antibodies, speeding up the process of drug candidate selection. Thanks to the physical containment and flexibility of microdrops, we can apply virtual any known bioassay for measuring the functional activity of each secreted antibody. These unique features of our fully integrated platform provide a novel and powerful solution to find antibody drugs against complex targets.
15:30 Planning / Way Forward
16:00 Lab Visit – to the TC2T Lab The visit will be in our tissue chip testing center, where we will show
various tissue chip technologies from different labs. Facilitated by: Murat Cirit, Emily Geischenker and Catherine
Communal
Why Tissue Chips Matter
Approximately 30 percent of promising medications have failed in human clinical trials because they are determined to be toxic — despite promising pre-clinical studies in animal and cell models. Tissue chips are a newer, human cell–based approach to this challenge. The chip devices may enable scientists to predict more accurately how effective a therapeutic candidate would be in clinical studies.
Eliminating toxic and/or ineffective drugs earlier in the development process would save time and money. These human tissue chips also could teach us a great deal about disease progression, enabling researchers to better prevent, diagnose and treat disorders. Learn more about the Tissue Chip for Drug Screening program.

11:00 Break, coffee, networking, table top demos
11:30 Session 2 Latest Research and Applications for Microfluidics
Droplets in free Air - Luke Ghislain : Labcyte (US)
Ultrasonic droplet ejection for liquid handling is robust and mature technology capable of precise and accurate transfers of almost any fluid between microplates at 2.5 and 25 nanoLiter granularity. But this technology still has plenty of room for growth: entirely new applications are now in development utilizing ultrasonic droplet ejection directly into a “reader”. One example is Acoustic Mist Ionization (AMI) for direct sample loading in Mass Spectrometry where we use ultrasonics to generate an electrically charged droplet cloud similar to Electrospray Ionization (ESI). This approach offers sub-second sampling, zero cross-talk, low sample consumption and kinetic measurements. An automated High Throughput Screen of more than 2 Million
compounds against a biologically important epigenetic target was recently completed.
Tools for Protein Scientists - Andrew Lynn : Founder, Fluidic Analytics (UK)
Proteins are the building blocks of life. They form the key components of cells, co-ordinate crucial biochemical processes and carry out the chemical reactions that allow the biological world to function.
By developing products that make protein characterisation faster, more precise, more convenient, more cost-effective and more accurate, Fluidic Analytics is striving to help scientists, healthcare providers and people everywhere to understand the world around them better.
12:30 Session 3 Major Funded Organ on a Chip Projects
“Progress update” - Murat Cirit MIT
Murat will present the latest public domain status from :
- DARPA (human body on a chip) and - NCATS (translational center of tissue chip technologies
Systematic Characterization of Microphysiological Systems (MPS)
A large percentage of drug candidates fail at the clinical trial stage due to a lack of efficacy
and unacceptable toxicity, primarily because the in vitro cell culture models and in vivo animal
models commonly used in preclinical studies provide limited information about how a drug will affect human
physiology. The need for more physiologically relevant in vitro systems for preclinical efficacy and toxicity testing has
led to a major effort to develop “Microphysiological Systems (MPS)” based on engineered human tissue constructs.
The MPS development process requires an initial assessment of viability and functionality, followed by an examination
of the MPS response to various stimuli, including drugs, toxins, and disease-related cues. These extensive
development efforts take place mainly in the developer's lab, and the reproducibility of the MPS results are rarely
assessed by an independent research group or transferred to industry partners for use in drug development. Although
there is a need for more physiologically-relevant preclinical testing technologies, the transition of MPS technologies
from academia to industry remains challenging. Successful transfer and deployment of MPS technologies requires
quantitative characterization and validation of the systems, preferably by an independent and unbiased external
testing facility. The Translational Center of Tissue Chip Technologies is to fill this gap between academic research and
development and industrial application of MPS technologies The Translational Center for Tissue Chip Technologies
combines a holistic and mechanistic approach—based on quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP)—that combines
quantitative experimental biology, computational biology, and biostatistics to achieve unbiased characterization of
these complex systems and translation of experimental insights to clinical outcomes.

“micro- and nanostructured surfaces induced neuronal differentiation of mesenchymal
stem cells” - Claudia Skazik-Voogt. Fraunhofer-Institut für Produktionstechnologie IPT (D)
Nano-scale structural patterns are important hallmarks of the neuronal microenvironment in vivo. Cultivation of pluripotent stem cells or neuronal precursor cells on artificial nano-structures provides topographical cues directing cellular alignment and extension. Moreover, resulting physical load transfers tensile forces to the nucleus and influence signaling pathway, inducing neuronal lineage gene expression.
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are of particular interest for regenerative medicine and exhibit a higher plasticity than previously anticipated. When cultured
under appropriate conditions, MSC do not only differentiate along mesodermal lineages, but also show upregulation of endo- and ectodermal lineage markers including those usually expressed on neurons.
In this study Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) micro-structured surfaces were used to induce neuronal marker expression in human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSC). AD-MSC cultivation on these surfaces induced extension and alignment of cellular processes, while increased expression of neurofilament and β-tubulin III were confirmed on gene and protein levels as compared to standard (flat surfaces) cultivation conditions.
Our results indicate that directed nano-structures might regulate AD-MSC differentiation in vitro. This is of relevance for regenerative medicine since such nano-structures could be used for pre-differentiation
towards neuronal differentiation lineages, provide a novel tool for damaged neuronal tissue reconstitution, or for production of patient-specific neural cells

Fluidic Analytics develops next generation tools for protein science. Our fundamentally new steady-state laminar flow platform allows proteins to be characterised in solution, under native conditions, quickly, cost-effectively and accurately. This platform brings together–on a single disposable chip–all of the fundamental steps of protein analysis, delivering a “sample in – data out” workflow that is rapid, simple and involves minimal sample preparation. Our technology looks to facilitate studies that distinguish proteins in simple solutions, cell lysates, or even complex mixtures, like blood plasma, by
simultaneously and sensitively measuring their key properties such as concentration, size, molecular weight and charge. And because our technology works best in extremely small volumes under physiological conditions, even highly complex protein solutions will be characterised rapidly, in small sample volumes and without extensive sample preparation.
The Fluidic Analytics platform characterises the properties of biomolecules and their interactions using novel approaches enabled by microfluidics. Our platform analyses proteins in solution under native conditions, obviating the need for tagging or labelling proteins before analysis. Measurements are conducted in label-free aqueous conditions at physiological pH, meaning that proteins and their interactions are assayed in their native conformations and without artefacts introduced by bulky tags or surface interactions. Applications of our platform include rapid size and concentration measurements, the detection of folding/unfolding, binding events, oligomerization, or aggregation, and binding constant determination.
The versatility of our platform and its compatibility with physiological conditions and native states give our technology the potential to make it easier, more accessible and more accurate to characterise the key characteristics of proteins that make our biological world function.
