Gasket designs. (I) Designed to impart constant shear stress to the cell monolayer; (II) symmetric expansion, linear contraction zone for specific stress gradient; (III) asymmetric expansion, linear contraction zone for specific stress gradient; (IV) planar jet geometry for specific stress gradient; (V) shortened planar jet geometry.
