Abstract:
Devices and methods are provided for detecting an immune reaction to a test agent using an immune modeling system comprising a barrier component configured to culture a biological barrier, an immune component configured to culture immune cells, and one or more inter-component microfluidic connections between the barrier component and the immune component. The system provides for culturing a biological barrier in the barrier component of the system, culturing immune cells in the immune component of the system, applying the test agent to the biological barrier, and monitoring the immune cells to detect an immune reaction to the test agent.
