Hydrogel Patterning at Micron and Submicron Scales

29 Sept 2010

Hydrogels are three-dimensional cross-linked polymer networks that have physical characteristics similar to those of natural tissue. This application note shows that patterns of PEG hydrogels at micron and submicron scales are easily generated using NanoInk’s DPN instrument systems. Using a 1D cantilever “pen” tip.

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. Find the best cell and tissue culture products, kits and equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.NanotechnologyNanotechnology, or nanotech, is an engineering technique using molecular scale functional systems. Applications of nanotechnology include medicine and medical devices, electronics, air and water purification, food science and energy production.
