Organs-on-a-chip devices are perfused cell culture systems aimed at creating the minimal functional unit of an organ - suchas the neurovascular unit (NVU) of the brain. NVU-on-a-chip platforms can provide an effective framework for studyingcentral nervous system physiology, disease etiology and provide a mean for drug development.In this work, we investigated the possibility of developing NVU-on-a-chip devices, with real-time sensing capabilitiesof glucose - intended for monitoring the metabolic activity of neurovascular cells. This was done by evaluating theperformance and applicability of in-house ultra-miniaturized glucose sensor technology and commercial DropSence (DS)electrodes, as well as studying astrocytoma characteristics.Firstly t...
