faCellitate gibt die Ergebnisse einer Studie zur 3D-Zellkultur bekannt:
Veröffentlichung im Biotechnology Journal Eine breit angelegte Vergleichsstudie, die von Forschenden des Karolinska Instituts in Stockholm durchgeführt wurde, hat gezeigt, dass BIOFLOAT™ 3D-Zellkulturplatten Leistungsmerkmale besitzen, die den anderen untersuchten 3D-Zellkulturplatten überlegen sind. Mannheim (Deutschland) und Stockholm (Schweden), 26. Februar 2024: Die faCellitate GmbH hat die Ergebnisse einer Vergleichsstudie von 3D-Zellkulturplatten bekannt gegeben, die von Forschenden des Karolinska Instituts in Stockholm, Schweden, einer der renommiertesten akademischen Forschungseinrichtungen in Europa, durchgeführt wurde. Die 3D-Zellkultur hat sich zu einer wichtigen Technologie für die Untersuchung biologischer Prozesse entwickelt. Die in der 3D-Zellkultur verwendeten Zellaggregate, so genannte "Sphäroide", ermöglichen eine Interaktion zwischen den Zellen, die den Bedingungen im lebenden Organismus ähnelt. So stellt die…

faCellitate 2023: Cutting-edge Flat-Bottom microplates with Ultra-Low Adhesion Surface
faCellitate expands its product range with the launch of three new BIOFLOAT™ -coated flat-bottom microplates; a 96-well format, soon to be followed by 24- and 6-well plates. This innovative series is purposefully crafted as an addition to the BIOFLOAT 96-well and 384-well U-Bottom plates, catering to spheroid and organoid applications. The BIOFLOAT coated flat-bottom microplate sets a new standard with superior anti-adhesive qualities, unlocking the potential for cultivating cells in 3D or in suspension (e.g., T cells) with the flat bottom allowing a better imaging of 3D cultures compared to U-bottom plates. Coming soon, the latest BIOFLOAT 96-well flat-bottom format microplate will also be followed by 24- and 6-well formats.…
