ABSTRACT:
A perfusion device to grow and maintain hepatocytes including a chamber having a perfusion inlet and a perfusion outlet, a semipermeable membrane in the chamber defining separate perfusion and hepatocyte compartments, and hepatocytes in the hepatocyte compartment attached via oligosaccharide-lectin recognition linkage to a biopolymer support in the hepatocyte compartment.
