The objective of the platform is to bridge biology and engineering in order to help the development of biomedical projects with a strong technological focus. Practically we provide the campus with essential technological bricks and expertise in microfluidics and biomaterials. Since May 2015 we developed in-house capabilities in the field of microfabrication, photo- and soft-lithography, multifactorial cell screening and automated live cell imaging especially targeted for the better understanding of complex cell-microenvironment interactions. We also provide assistance with the deployment of advanced 3D cell culture and organ-on-chip systems.

Microfluidic Large-Scale Integration Applied to Molecular Diagnostics. Prof. Sebastian MAERKL (EPFL)
We have developed microfluidic devices for high-throughput quantitative studies of protein interactions. In order to enable the measurement of transient molecular interactions we invented a novel detection mechanism based on mechanically induced trapping of […]

Services
Advanced 3D cell culture
We provide a library of 3D cell culture scaffolds with tunable biophysical and biochemical properties.
Soft-lithography bench
The pipeline is targeted for the production of microfluidics chips in PDMS (silicone elastomer) . Masters produced by contact photolithography are (negatively) replicated in PDMS under dust-free conditions. The bonding of the chips are performed […]
Contact Photolithography
The photolithography station is dedicated to microfabrication applications. The concept is based on the using 1-UV light, 2-Binary masks and 3-photosensitive resins to produce 3D objects with resolution <1μm.
Equipments
Spincoater • SCS • 6800
Programmable spincoater dedicated to the production of thin layers of PDMS
2 • Microfluidic syringe pumps • Cetoni • neMESYS
Computer controlled (programmable) syringe pump system dedicated to microfluidic chip perfusion. One controller plus two low pressure modules and a pressure sensor.
Inverted microscope for live cell imaging • Zeiss • Axiovert
Inverted microscope for live cell imaging capabilities. The microscope is built for speed in order to reduce the interval between time points when acquiring a timelapse experiment. Standard LED fluorescence is available (Colibri system). […]
Plasma cleaner • diener • Femto
Oxygen plasma cleaner. Applications: surface activation, PDMS bonding, cleaning. Controllable vacuum, gas injection, power, treatment time.
Mask aligner • Süss Microtec • MJB4
Manual mask aligner equipped with a topside microscope and dual objectives. Micrometric screws allow a precise mask-substrate alignment.
