   Scientists create world's first 'Vagina-on-a-Chip' to combat bacterial   
   diseases   
      
   Researchers replicated the human vaginal tissue microenvironment in   
   vitro through this chip.   
      
   Researchers at the Wyss Institute at Harvard University have   
   engineered the first-ever "Vagina on a Chip" in the world that   
   replicates the human vaginal tissue microenvironment in vitro,   
   Scientific American reported on Wednesday.   
      
   It is composed of the human vaginal epithelium and underlying   
   connective tissue cells and it replicates many of the physiological   
   features of the vagina, according to Harvard.   
      
   Studying vaginal health   
      
   Best of all, it can be inoculated with different strains of bacteria   
   allowing researchers to study their effects on the organ's health.
