Medium

Materials and Methods

A hole (600 μm in diameter) in the center of sugar ball and edible silver was detached.

Teflon capillary (200 μm in inside and 400 μm in outside diameters) was threaded through the hole and molten glucose by using a hotplate at 150 ℃ was applied around the hole.

About 1 mL of PDMS prepolymer solidified at 100 ℃ for 1 hour above a hotplate under rotation (22 rpm).

Materials and Methods

Drawing and insertion of capillaries, and the two capillaries were attached to sphere using epoxy glue.

One capillary was connected to a syringe pump and dissolving sugar ball in water.

Materials and Methods

A hollow sphere (about 5 mm in diameter, 250 μm in thickness) with connected capillaries was fabricated. The PDMS sphere was sterilized and immersed for 1 h in 50 μg mL-1 fibronectin solution in PBS at 37 ℃ to promote cardiomyocyte attachment.

Results and Discussion

A cultured cardiomyocyte sheet produced periodic contractile-expansion motion of the PDMS micro spherical heart.

Spherical polystyrene tracking particles (1 μm diameter) were dispersed in cell culture medium within the capillaries.

Conclusions

New fabrication methods to create a novel micro spherical heart-like pump prototype.

Regular fluid motion in a capillary connected to the hollow pumping sphere, with the device working continuously over 5 days.

This device is a fully integrated, wireless mechanochemical converter, driven with only chemical energy input from culture milieu.

External control of both fluid motion and mechanical performance of the bio-actuator is possible using culture temperature.

Possible applications:

1. as an electric powerless bio-actuator to drive fluids in implanted micro-chemical or biochemical medical implant devices.

2. as a component of a cardiovascular circulatory system micro-model to study mechanisms of circulatory physiology, pathology, and developmental biology.
