Abstract

Correction for ‘UniChip enables long-term recirculating unidirectional perfusion with gravity-driven flow for microphysiological systems’ by Ying I. Wang and Michael L. Shuler, Lab Chip, 2018, 18, 2563–2574.


The authors regret that the reference to eqn (7) in the sentence beginning “UCNs can maintain continuous unidirectional flow…” in section 3.4 should instead be a reference to eqn (12). The corrected sentence reads: “UCNs can maintain continuous unidirectional flow (Ai → Bi with no backflow) even when inlet and outlet (O1 and O2) swaps if eqn (12) is satisfied.”

In addition “ai → bi” in the last sentence of the caption of Fig. 8 should read “Ai → Bi”. The corrected caption is included below.

Fig. 8 Schematic of UniChip design in general. The fluidic network includes a pair of inlet/outlet (O1/O2) for reciprocating flow input, one or more unidirectional channel network (UCN, U1, U2, …, Un), and a supporting channel network (SCN, a1, a2, …, an, and b1, b2, …, bn) including valving devices (v1 and v2). Fluid flows in UCN from inlets to outlets (Ai → Bi, i = 1, 2, …, n).
