Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to devices and systems that may generate and maintain a chemical gradient. In one embodiment, the invention provides a source and a sink channel so that a gradient bridge is created. In another embodiment, the gradient bridge creates a stable environment for facilitating molecular events to occur, such as a cell migration, or formation of crystallized molecules.
