    Abstract Current fundamental investigations of human biology and the development of therapeutic drugs commonly rely on 2D monolayer cell culture systems. However, 2D cell culture systems do not accurately recapitulate the structure, function or physiology of living tissues, nor the highly complex and dynamic 3D environments in vivo. Microfluidic technology can provide microscale complex structures and well-controlled parameters to mimic the in vivo environment of cells. The combination of microfluidic technology with 3D cell culture offers great potential for in vivo-like tissue-based applications, such as the emerging organ-on-a-chip system. This article will review recent advances in the microfluidic technology for 3D cell culture and their biological applications.

    Abstract This chapter introduces a microfluidic method to study the contraction of a single cardiac muscle cell (cardiomyocyte). This method integrates single-cell selection, cell retention, dye loading, chemical stimulation, and fluorescence measurement for intracellular calcium on one microfluidic chip. Before single-cell experiments, the bonded chip was modified in order to make the channel deep enough to accommodate a large, single cardiomyocyte. After the modification, a single heart muscle cell could be selected and retained at a cell retention structure. Fluo-4 AM was loaded in the cell for the measurement of intracellular calcium ion concentration in the cell. Subsequently, caffeine was introduced into the chamber to induce the contraction of the cardiomyocyte. During contraction, fluorescence measurement was used to monitor the intracellular calcium level,and an optical imaging system was used to monitor the shape to confirm the contraction. The resting [Ca2+]i of cardiomyocyte was determined and was consistent with the value of approx 100 nM in the literature.
