3D InsertTM-PS
Our 3D InsertTM-PS Scaffolds are ideal for daily 3D cell culture applications. By utilizing
our 3D InsertTM–PS you can turn an ordinary 2D monolayer cell culture into a
novel 3 dimensional cell culture environment, which offers many extraordinary
benefits you may never have realized.
Pre-Sterilized and Ready to Use
Our 3D InsertTM-PS
scaffolds are prepackaged into wells of tissue
culture plates and terminally sterilized using γ-radiation. Currently
our PS Scaffolds are available in prepackaged tissue culture plates
ranging from 6-well to 96-well plates.
100% Connectivity
The
pores of the products are 100% open, making it easy for cells to be
seeded throughout the porous scaffolds and the nutrient and cell
metabolic
waste to be exchanged. This feature makes the products especially
useful in conducting dynamic cultures where the medium can perfuse
through the 100% open porous structure.
Well Defined Pore Size and Porous Structure
3D Biotek’s precision microfabrication technology produces a
well-defined pore size and ensures the reproducibility of the porous structure
from batch to batch.
Easy Monitoring Cell Growth
3D InsertTM-PS scaffolds are made from polystyrene, the same material as the traditional tissue culture plates.
The combination of transparency of the material and the porous structure design
makes it possible to monitoring cell growth under an inverted light microscope.
Mechanically Strong and Easy to Handle
3D InsertTM-PS scaffolds are mechanically strong.
Therefore, they are easy to handle and manipulate when needed.
Free of Animal Derived Material
Our PS Scaffolds are made from 100% synthetic polymer with
consistent quality to ensure experimental reproducibility when using different
batches of 3D InsertTM-PS.
Improved Cell Culture Efficiency
3D
Biotek's products have increased surface areas as compared to 2D cell
culture plates. There, more cells can be cultured using the same size
cell culture dish/plates/flasks/bioreactors.
Easy Separation of Cytokines and Growth Factors Secreted by Cultured Cells
Our
3D cell culture scaffolds will not absorb cytokines and growth
factors. Therefore, cytokines and growth factors, which are secreted
by cultured cells during 3D culture, can be easily separated or
recovered from the culture medium without going through any extra
separation steps.
Compatible with Most 2D Cell Culture Protocols,
Including Trypsin Digestion Protocol
Cells cultured in non-degradable scaffolds can be assayed using most 2D
cell culture assay protocols. Cultured cells can be easily harvested using the
same trypsin digestion protocol as in the 2D cell culture.
