ABM Scientific Co. is focused on the novel and simple use of microscale physics and phenomena to create tools and methods to further biological and medical goals ranging from basic science to research tools to diagnostics.
We are especially interested and engaged in applying the lab's technologies to 2D & 3D cell culture with Hypoxia System. ABM Scientific Co. is very multidisciplinary and collaborative, working across disciplines and disease boundaries to create solutions that can be translated into widespread use.
Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple.
But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains.

We developed microfluidics chip system that complements various problems of fluidics system in this study, and performed studies including co-culture, drug screening, optimal differentiation condition screening.
We report simple microfluidics 3-dimensional (3D) compartmentalized culture systems which have employed mixed culture
of Keratocyte cells and epithelial cells in 3D gels (e.g., collagen I). This microfluidics system enables information-rich in vitro
assays. We presented a simple compartmentalized 3D culture model that supports the Keratocyte and Epithelial cell in vitro.
We report the microfluidic based oxygen tension controllable high throughput hypoxia system for cell biology research.
This device has thin PDMS membrane between gas gradient generation layer and cell culture layer to transfer the gas
using higher gas permeable property of PDMS. This system can be used for researching a fundamental understanding of
effect hypoxia environment on to stem cells and others.
