    Area of Science:

    • Microfluidics
    • Microbiology
    • Drug Discovery

    Background:

    • Current microbial culture methods lack dynamic chemical control and scalability for 3D cultures.
    • High-throughput antibiotic susceptibility testing requires advanced platforms for complex environments.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop an automated microfluidic system for programmable 3D hydrogel cultures.
    • To investigate the impact of microenvironment and drug timing on bacterial growth and antibiotic response.
    • To profile antibiotic pair efficacy and interactions in dynamic 3D cultures.

    Main Methods:

    • An automated microfluidic system with 512 independently programmable 3D hydrogel chambers.
    • High-throughput screening of combinatorial and time-varying drug protocols.
    • Live-cell microscopy to track bacterial colony growth, morphology, and drug response.
    • Quantitative analysis of thousands of bacterial colonies and half a million images.

    Main Results:

    • Hydrogel stiffness and nutrient timing significantly alter colony architecture and antibiotic susceptibility.
    • Simultaneous and sequential dosing of antibiotic pairs reveal synergy, antagonism, and order-dependent efficacy.
    • The system successfully mapped chemical and mechanical determinants of antibiotic response and drug interactions.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed platform offers unprecedented control and scalability for 3D microbial culture and drug response studies.
    • Dynamic microenvironments and precise drug delivery are crucial for understanding antibiotic efficacy and resistance.
    • This technology advances the study of drug interactions and the development of novel antimicrobial strategies.
