Abstract
A flow-based biological testing platform comprises a stationary base; a reciprocating base mounted on the stationary base, configured for reciprocating motion on the base; and at least one flexible tubular test loop coupled to both the stationary and the reciprocating base, wherein each test loop is configured to be selectively filled with a biologic fluid, and wherein each test loop includes at least one check valve mounted within the test loop allowing flow in a single flow direction within the test loop, and a fluid loading and removal system attached to the stationary base allowing fluid to be supplied to and withdrawn from the flexible tubular test loop; wherein reciprocation of the reciprocating base induces fluid flow in a single direction within each flexible test loop.
