Organ-on-a-chip a biochip has been created by researchers at cellasys. Researchers are working towards building a multi-channel 3D microfluidic cell culture system that compartmentalizes microenvironments in which 3D cellular aggregates are cultured to mimic multiple organs in the body. Most organ-on-a-chip models today only culture one cell type, so even though they may be valid models for studying whole organ functions, the systemic effect of a drug on the human body is not verified. In particular, an integrated cell culture analog (µCCA) was developed and included lung cells, drug-metabolizing liver and fat cells. The cells were linked in a 2D fluidic
Proper adjective adjectives. In general, an adjective is capitalized if its meaning is "pertaining to "X"", where "X" is some specific person, place, language, or organized group. Most capitalized adjectives are derived from proper nouns; for example, the proper adjective "American" is derived from the proper noun "America".
