For a Complex Tissue Microenvironment & Drug Testing
Catalogue Number: 3N1-APRCL
Advantages:
-
Create spheroids, apply extracellular matrices, test drugs and perform downstream analysis. All without ever having to transfer the spheroids from one platform to another.
-
Uniform spheroids for experimental consistency.
-
No risk of losing spheroids during media changes.
-
Lower cell requirements reduces the need to passage cells for organoid formation.
-
One spheroid per microwell. No crosstalk between the models.
-
Easily image spheroids in situ.
-
Spheroids can be formalin fixed, paraffin embedded, and sliced directly within the hydrogel platform, enabling in situ IHC analysis.
DESCRIPTION
Apricell's 3-in-1 Plate is a hydrogel insert that fits within each well of a six-well plate. The 3-in-1 Plate combines spheroid formation, ECM integration, drug testing and downstream analysis all in one easy-to-use platform. The insert is perfectly suited to various assays and is compatible with standard laboratory imaging equipment, making it suitable to a wide range of experiments.
