TL;DR: This work reports a fully integrated modular physical, biochemical, and optical sensing platform, interfaced through a fluidics-routing breadboard with a multi–organ-on-a-chip system to achieve in situ, continual, and automated sensing of microenvironment biophysical and biochemical parameters.
Abstract: Organ-on-a-chip systems are miniaturized microfluidic 3D human tissue and organ models designed to recapitulate the important biological and physiological parameters of their in vivo counterparts. They have recently emerged as a viable platform for personalized medicine and drug screening. These in vitro models, featuring biomimetic compositions, architectures, and functions, are expected to replace the conventional planar, static cell cultures and bridge the gap between the currently used preclinical animal models and the human body. Multiple organoid models may be further connected together through the microfluidics in a similar manner in which they are arranged in vivo, providing the capability to analyze multiorgan interactions. Although a wide variety of human organ-on-a-chip models have been created, there are limited efforts on the integration of multisensor systems. However, in situ continual measuring is critical in precise assessment of the microenvironment parameters and the dynamic responses of the organs to pharmaceutical compounds over extended periods of time. In addition, automated and noninvasive capability is strongly desired for long-term monitoring. Here, we report a fully integrated modular physical, biochemical, and optical sensing platform through a fluidics-routing breadboard, which operates organ-on-a-chip units in a continual, dynamic, and automated manner. We believe that this platform technology has paved a potential avenue to promote the performance of current organ-on-a-chip models in drug screening by integrating a multitude of real-time sensors to achieve automated in situ monitoring of biophysical and biochemical parameters.

TL;DR: In this article, the state of the art in methods for coating materials for use in solid phase microextraction (SPME) is discussed, with a focus on simple methods for deposition of different types of coatings.
Abstract: Introduced in the 1990s, solid-phase microextraction (SPME) has found numerous applications. This is due to the solventless nature of SPME and the large variety of sorbents and coatings available. Highly diverse procedures have been applied to coat supports such as fused silica fibers or metal wires with sorbents in order to enhance capability, selectivity and robustness of SPME. Lately, research also is directed towards more simple methods for deposition of different types of coatings. Several of these methods have resulted in better stability and higher effective surface areas of the coatings. This review (with 128 references) covers the state of the art in methods for coating materials for use in SPME. It is divided into the following sections: (a) Dip methods and physical agglutination methods, (b) sol-gel technology, (c) chemical grafting, (d) electrochemical methods for coating (such as electrodeposition, anodizing and electrophoretic deposition), (e) electrospinning, (f) liquidphase deposition, and (g) hydrothermal methods. A final section covers conclusions and future trends.
