3D Culture Insert Mimics Living Tissue

The collagen coated Vecell three-dimensional scaffold promotes cell adhesion and proliferation without causing the type of cell stress seen in regular plastic culture vessels. The Vecell membrane is porous, enabling both cells and medium to pass through easily, mimicking in vivo tissue. This encourages cell-cell interactions and metabolic activities to occur as they would in their natural environment. Cells cultured using a Vecell insert can be viewed using phase contrast microscopy and the membrane can also be easily prepared for use with both scanning and transmission electron microscopes.

Vecell inserts are sterilized using ethylene oxide gas and are supplied in individual blister packs with a nonrefrigerated two-year shelf life from the date of manufacture.
