3D Insert^TM

3D Insert^TM is a series of disposable 3-dimensional cell culture well in serts for use with multiwell cell culture plates. They are made from both non-degradable and degradable polymers such as polystyrene and PCL. They are composed of struts/filaments which are joined together to form a well-defined porous structure, including the porosity, pore size and surface area. 3D Insert^TM PCL is available in our Online Store now

The Two Products Have the Following Advantages:

1. Convenient to Use
These products are sterilized and ready for use, just like the way of using cell culture dish/plates/flasks. 

2. 100% Open Porosity
The pores of the products are 100% open.Therefore, cells can be seeded easily through out the porous scaffolds, and the nutrient and cell metabolism waste can be exchanged easily. This feature makes the products especially useful in conducting dynamic cultures where medium can perfuse through the 100% open porous structure.

3. Well Defined Pore Size and Porous Structure
3D Biotek’s precision microfabrication technology produces well-defined porous scaffolds and ensures the reproducibility of the porous structure from batch to batch.

4. 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.

5. Improved Cell Culture Efficiency
3D Biotek’s products have increased surface areas as compared to 2D cell culture plates. Therefore, more cells can be cultured using the same size cell culture dish/plates/flasks/bioreactors.

6. 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 culture medium without going through extra separation steps. 

 

 

 

Services 

 

3D Biotek is offering the following services based on its technology and knowledge:

1. Custom Design and Fabrication of 3D Cell Culture/Tissue Engineering Scaffolds

    With its patented 3D Precision Micro-fabrication Technology platform, 3D Biotek can help customers to design and fabricate 3D scaffolds with specifc porous

    structure and configurations to meet customer's specific needs. Customers are also welcome to bring their own polymeric materials and let us  fabricate porous

    scaffolds according to their design.

 

 

2. Medical Device and Tissue Engineering Product Prototyping Using 3D Precision Micro-Fabrication Technology Platform

    3D Precision Micro-fabrication technology platform is especially suitable for prototyping small medical devices and parts with internal structures. 3D Biotek will

    work with customers to design and produce prototypes of their future products, so that our customers will be able to reduce their R&D expense by shortening their

    product development cycle. 

 

3. Consulting Service on Medical Device Design and Regulatory Filing in both USA and China.
    The management team has extensive experience in both medical device industry and regulatory filing in both USA and China. 3D Biotek has also teamed up with

    Chinese medical device consulting firms, Chinese medical device testing and regulatory experts in China, and will provide consulting services ranging from

    regulatory requirement, document preparation, document translation, and filing to the US based medical device companies who want to gain access to the huge

    Chinese market.
