Conformable Device for Independent Measurements of Mucosal and Vascular Barriers in a Complex In Vitro Intestinal Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Development of more complex in vitro models necessitates the development of improved monitoring approaches. This work demonstrates a novel conformable device capable of measuring the resistance of two cell barriers within a single model independently, a significant advantage over conventional trans‐epithelial/endothelial electrical resistance (TEER ...
