Abstract

This paper “HUMAN ORGANS ON CHIPS” explains about how to develop organs on a single chip Instead of implanting organs. Cells can be cultured in micro-incubation chambers in the chip, connected by tiny channels in which liquids can be pumped through the cell culture chambers in a controlled manner. Likewise animal organs can also be developed from a chip, by using a single cell taken from its organ.
