Abstract

Microfluidic devices enable precise quantification of the interactions between anti-cancer bacteria and tumor tissue. Direct observation of bacterial movement and gene expression in tissue is difficult with either monolayers of cells or tumor-bearing mice. Quantification of these interactions is necessary to understand the inherent mechanisms of bacterial targeting and to develop modified organisms with enhanced therapeutic properties. Here we describe the procedures for designing, printing, and assembling microfluidic tumor-on-a-chip devices. We also describe the procedures for inserting three-dimensional tumor-cell masses, exposure to bacteria, and analyzing the resultant images.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 February 2016.
All research outputs
#20,305,223
of 22,844,985 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#9,917
of 13,127 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#330,614
of 393,571 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#1,053
of 1,470 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,844,985 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,127 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 393,571 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,470 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
