Establish NASH Model with Human Liver
Primary human hepatocytes co-cultured with stromal cells form stable organoids in our plates; after induction, they’re ready for drug treatment and readouts.

Liver cells were combined and seeded into a micro-well plate. After several days of culture, round and clear organoids were formed. On Day 7, treatments were introduced to induce NASH. The images above show the successful formation of NASH organoids from three individual donors. Following one week of induction, the NASH organoids were ready for drug treatments and related applications.
NASH Liver Model for Hepatotoxicity Test
We can discriminate between hepatotoxic and non-hepatotoxic analogs—e.g., clozapine is toxic while amoxapine is not—across multiple donors. Clozapine (red bars) exhibited clear hepatotoxic effects, while amoxapine (blue bars) showed no signs of liver toxicity.

This model effectively distinguishes between hepatotoxic and non-hepatotoxic structural analogues, yielding consistent results across multiple donors. This demonstrates robust biology paired with engineered substrates.

-
Integrated PDMS OoC Device Assembly
We assemble PDMS organ-on-chip devices by embedding the PERFECT membrane within multilayer microfluidic structures that are cured, aligned, and bonded under controlled conditions. This process yields a clear, sealed device with stable flow paths and robust membrane integration suitable for a wide range of barrier and co-culture models.
-
Customization and Application Support
We work with researchers and industry partners to design OoC devices tailored to specific biological, mechanical, and imaging needs, with full control over channel layout, membrane porosity, materials, and device geometry. This approach supports rapid early development and delivers reproducible devices for longitudinal or higher throughput studies.
-
High-performance Membranes
Conventional membranes such as PDMS, PC, and PET are often too thick, have poorly controlled porosity, limit imaging, and absorb small molecules in ways that bias assays. Our parylene C membrane platform solves these issues by offering precise control over thickness, porosity, and pore geometry, producing thin, transparent, and low absorption membranes suited for dynamic barrier models.
-
Parylene-based PERFECT Filter
Our PERFECT filter is fabricated using a parylene molding and etching process that creates uniform, free standing membranes with well defined honeycomb pore lattices and tunable porosity. This design provides high mechanical flexibility, large effective filtration areas, and consistent transport properties for endothelial and epithelial interfaces or other models that require reliable mass transfer.
Case Study 2
Microfluidic Organ-on-a-Chip (OoC) for Modeling Tissue Barrier Function
We build custom organ-on-a-chip (OoC) devices that integrate high precision microfluidic channels, engineered membranes, and mechanically tunable materials to reproduce tissue barrier function, parenchymal tissue behavior, and multi organ interactions. Our platform supports both flexible research prototyping and reliable, scalable manufacturing.
