(A) Schematic of Experimental Setup. Three inlets supply cell media to an epithelial sheet cultured in the Inline graphic wide, Inline graphic high channels. This is done under no flow. (B) After cells have reached confluency, 15 Inline graphicl/min flow (Inline graphic) is applied, leading to three separated laminar streams. One stream contains 0.05% trypsin, while the other two contain cell media. This cleaves cells from the channel as shown in (C). On average, cleavage takes 5 min. Images are acquired in brightfield.
