An advanced chip for treatment of Osteoarthritis

The latest scientific study at the Politecnico di Milano Laboratory MiMic (Microfluidic and Biomimetic Microsystems) of the University Hospital of Basel have resulted in creating an advanced chip which can be used to create a cartilage. The chip is as big as a coin and can further be used to generate the effects of Osteoarthrosis (OA). Based on the research, the experts found that the mechanical hyperstimulation of a cartilage, could induce Os....
