Abstract

Abstract : The cover picture shows a microfluidic device that can be used to detect interactions between red blood cells and endothelial cells using a gold pillar array and an integrated detection electrode. In order to study the cellular interactions, this work used a microfluidic device made of a PDMS chip with two adjacent channels and a polystyrene base with embedded electrodes for creating a membrane (via gold pillars) and detecting nitric oxide (at a glassy carbon electrode coated with platinum‐black and Nafion). More Details can be found in the communication by A.D. Townsend, R.S. Sprague, and R.S. Martin, DOI: 10.1002/elan.201900157.
