    Abstract: Systems and methods interconnect cell culture devices and/or fluidic devices by transferring discrete volumes of fluid between devices. A liquid-handling system collects a volume of fluid from at least one source device and deposits the fluid into at least one destination device. In some embodiments, a liquid-handling robot actuates the movement and operation of a fluid collection device in an automated manner to transfer the fluid between the at least one source device and the at least one destination device. In some cases, the at least one source device and the at least one destination device are cell culture devices. The at least one source device and the at least one destination device may be microfluidic or non-microfluidic devices. In some cases, the cell culture devices may be microfluidic cell culture devices. In further cases, the microfluidic cell culture devices may include organ-chips.

    Abstract: An organomimetic device comprising: a. a first microchannel height-defining layer having a bottom surface and a first microchannel disposed in the bottom surface wherein the first microchannel height-defining layer comprises: i. a first lamination layer having a first microchannel aperture therein, wherein thickness of the first lamination layer defines the height of the first microchannel; and ii. a first sealing layer disposed on top of the first lamination layer, wherein the first sealing layer provides a top closure of the first microchannel aperture, thereby forming the first microchannel; b. a second microchannel height-defining layer having a top surface and a second microchannel disposed in the top surface; and c. a membrane layer having a membrane portion, the membrane layer being laminated between the bottom surface of the first microchannel height-defining layer and the top surface of the second microchannel height-defining layer, wherein a first surface portion of the membrane portion provides a lower boundary of the first microchannel and a second surface portion of the membrane portion provides an upper boundary of the second microchannel; and wherein at least a portion of the first microchannel is aligned with at least a portion of the second microchannel on an opposite side of the membrane portion. 242 200 244 207 206 202 209 230 -- ,232
