This paper demonstrates a microfluidic chip incorporating patterned hollow silica beads that can be effectively used for chemotaxis assay. The hollow silica bead has been exploited to develop a carrier for chemoattractant to induce cell migration. The microfluidic chip contains a patterned array of microfabricated docks which can hold only one bead per docking site. The hollow bead placed inside microfluidic chip releases chemotactic reagent (PDGF-BB) around its periphery in a controlled fashion which generates a signal for chemotatic migration of fibroblast cells. The number of cells migrated close to each bead has been assessed. On-chip cell migration assay showed a remarkable result proving the high efficiency and reliable accuracy in quantitative analysis. Therefore, the device could be extensively used in cell migration assay and other various studies related to cellular movements.
