Schematic of the impact of the uncontrolled cells in upstream region on the main test section in microfluidic device. a Structure of a general microfluidic device. There is a microfluidic channel constituting the upstream and downstream of the test section for material exchange including the culture medium. b Influence of upstream cells on the experimental conditions in the test section. The ideal conditions researchers expect to design microfluidic devices and the non-ideal conditions in which cells cultured in the upstream region affect the test section
