Industry news

The core technology of Greiner Bio-One’s Magnetic 3D Cell Culture is the magnetization of cells with biocompatible NanoShuttle™-PL. The reproducible formation of spheroids in a flat-bottom plate with cell-repellent surface is directed by magnetic fields either by levitation or bioprinting. This allows for structurally and biologically representative 3D in vitro models to be created.

Glauco Souza (Director of Global Business Development & Innovation and Adjunct Assistant Professor at The University of Texas), who developed the Magnetic 3D Cell Culture technology will be part of the Greiner Bio-One team at SLAS, February 3 - 6, Washington.

In addition to 3D Cell Culture technology, Greiner Bio-One will also be showcasing Microplates for High Throughput & High Content Screening, a new mass cell culture device, the CELLdisc™, and a full portfolio of laboratory consumables for drug discovery, diagnostics, and the life sciences.

Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins.

This can reveal information on cell health (apoptosis, cytotoxicity, viability and proliferation assays), cell metabolism, cell migration and cell signaling mechanisms.

SLAS promotes scientific advancements through conferences, publications, and industry collaborations. SpheroidsSpheroids are clusters of cells that have been grown in 3D culture to be used as <i>in vitro</i> model systems. These 3D microtissues can be used for toxicology testing, DMPK studies and many other applications involving cell analysis.
