Details
This research develops a Skin-on-a-Chip (SoC) device using microfluidics to simulate human skin environments. It aims to reduce animal testing, lower research costs, and improve the accuracy of pharmaceutical and cosmeceutical ingredient testing.
This research aims to develop and test a Skin-on-a-Chip (SoC) device that integrates skin cells and endothelial cells within a microfluidic system to closely simulate the biological environment of human skin. The device reduces reliance on animal testing while lowering research costs and time, and improves the accuracy of pharmaceutical and cosmeceutical ingredient testing. The project targets TRL 5 prototype development alongside patent filing and pilot-scale manufacturing process development, with a clear pathway toward commercial readiness within two years.
Objective
The project objectives include developing the Skin-on-a-Chip device to meet stakeholder needs, refining the product based on user feedback, and establishing a pilot-scale manufacturing process.
- To develop a Skin-on-a-Chip device that meets the needs of stakeholders.
- To collect user feedback and refine the device into a market-ready product.
- To develop a pilot-scale manufacturing process.
