Current advances in biocompatibility assessment for MEMS in biomedical applications
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have significantly advanced biomedical applications, enabling precise control in cell culture, tissue engineering, and drug delivery by creating highly controlled microenvironments that mimic biological systems. Traditional approaches to diagnostics and tissue fabrication face challenges in precision and scalability, driving interest in MEMS-based biosensors and microfluidic devices. These technologies offer high-throughput analysis and cellular manipulation, essential for developing complex three-dimensional (3D) tissue constructs. This paper reviews advancements in MEMS biocompatibility assessment over the past 14 years (2011–2024), focusing on material selection and device design to meet regulatory and performance standards. It also evaluates in vitro and in vivo testing methods, addressing unique challenges posed by MEMS-specific characteristics such as micro-scale structures and mixed materials. Finally, this paper highlights future directions for enhancing biocompatibility, safety, and performance, paving the way for the integration of MEMS into clinical applications to address critical challenges in biomedical fields.
期刊介绍:
Microfluidics and Nanofluidics is an international peer-reviewed journal that aims to publish papers in all aspects of microfluidics, nanofluidics and lab-on-a-chip science and technology. The objectives of the journal are to (1) provide an overview of the current state of the research and development in microfluidics, nanofluidics and lab-on-a-chip devices, (2) improve the fundamental understanding of microfluidic and nanofluidic phenomena, and (3) discuss applications of microfluidics, nanofluidics and lab-on-a-chip devices. Topics covered in this journal include:
1.000 Fundamental principles of micro- and nanoscale phenomena like,
flow, mass transport and reactions
3.000 Theoretical models and numerical simulation with experimental and/or analytical proof
4.000 Novel measurement & characterization technologies
5.000 Devices (actuators and sensors)
6.000 New unit-operations for dedicated microfluidic platforms
7.000 Lab-on-a-Chip applications
8.000 Microfabrication technologies and materials
Please note, Microfluidics and Nanofluidics does not publish manuscripts studying pure microscale heat transfer since there are many journals that cover this field of research (Journal of Heat Transfer, Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, Journal of Heat and Fluid Flow, etc.).
