FlowTiss BioBarrier

Dual-Channel Flow Chamber with Customized Membrane for Barrier and Co-Culture Models
This advanced flow chamber is a macrofluidic evolution of conventional microfluidic chips, designed to enable barrier modeling at a larger scale while supporting complex downstream analyses. It features a dual-channel system separated by a porous membrane, ideal for simulating physiological barriers such as maternal-fetal interfaces, kidney filtration units or intestinal uptake of nutrients, blood-tumor surface.
 
Technical Features:
Top and bottom flow channels separated by a semipermeable membrane/hydrogel
Larger cell culture surface area compared to standard chips, ideal for molecular analysis (omics approaches)
Equipped with an openable design for easy cell seeding and harvesting
Suitable for co-culture of different cell types (e.g., endothelial + epithelial)
Designed to model dynamic physiological barriers
Modular and adaptable to various organ models
Made from inert Teflon for compatibility and reusability
 
Applications:
BioBarrier simulations (placenta, kidney, lung, intestine, skin)
Transport and permeability studies
Cell–cell interaction experiments (e.g., immune–epithelial)
Toxicology and pharmacokinetics research focusing on membrane transport
Dual-compartment analysis for toxicity and interaction studies, enabling simultaneous assessment of cross-membrane effects and cell–cell responses
