Our Collagel Hydrogels, and Nanofibers can take your cell based assays to the next level. They give you the capabilities to develop 3-D structures and ECMs that more closely mimic in vivo environments. Our comprehensive listing should address most requirements. This includes structures designed to closely represent the actual biological environment of interest.
These cultures promote better cell growth, differentiation and migration and designed to work with many cell types including: stem cells, cancer cells, progenitors, neurons, glia, astrocytes, fibroblasts, and keratinocytes. 3-D cell assay applications include the study of cellular functionality, morphology, protein/gene expression and drug interaction/toxicology in vitro.
- Collagel Hydrogels
Our CollaGel Hydrogel matches the softness of the body's tissues. It can be used to culture neurons in an environment as soft as the brain, cardiomyocytes on the stiffness of muscle, or whatever your cells' tissue of origin may be. In a 3D tissue model, our CollaGel Hydrogel helps the cells build stronger basement membranes. Collagel Hyrogels can be used for: Stem Cell Behavior Studies Fibrosis Studies, Cosmetic Toxicology, Hepatocyte Assays, Neuronal Branching, Wound Healing Assays, Cell Invasion Assays, Migration Assays, Cancer Cell Phenotyping and Bioprinting.

Aligned 3-D nanofibers enable cells to align and orient as they do in vivo which facilitates faster screening with more meaningful results. Aligned nanofibers:
-
Mimic aligned and oriented parts of the body such as white matter within the brain, the central nervous system, cardiac tissue, skeletal muscle, and many others.
- Help control differentiation of stem cells into the desired celltype by providing the appropriate physical cues for cardiomyocytes, neurons, myoblasts, etc.
- Provide an ideal substrate for high-throughput, real-time imaging and quantification of cell migration and is much more physiologically relevant than typical 'scratch assays.

- 3-D Random Nanofiber Solutions
Random 3-D nanofibers provides an environment that mimics the structure of much of the ECM in our bodies facilitating faster screening with more meaningful results. Random nanofibers:
- Mimic the nanofibrous extracellular matrix found throughout the body
- Provide a substrate for adherent stem cell expansion that produces higher expansion rates while maintaining stem cell pluripotency
- Increased surface area which facilitates culturing higher cell numbers which can result in higher production levels of monoclonal antibodies, cytokines, etc.

Cell to cell interactions in a 3-D environment often catalyze increased genetic expressions and related behaviors. These co-cultures are important for accurate studies of cancer, stem cells and other cells as the grow, differentiate and migrate.
Interactive Microenvironment System (IMEMS):-
Allows co-culture of several different cell types for enhanced interaction and cellular response.
- Cells have chemical communication, but not physical contact which allows easy post-analysis of each cell type.
- Each layer within the IMEMS allows for high-resolution imaging of the cells after the culture period.

- Type I Rat Tendon Collagen
Collagen naturally plays an important role within the body, but it is being used increasingly within certain areas of medicine as well. The breakdown of the body natural collagen can lead to a number of health problems, but the protein can also be used in other contexts to help with the repair of the body. Collagen comprises a family of genetically distinct molecules, all of which have a unique triple helix configuration of three polypeptide subunits known as alpha-chains. Each chain contains around 1000 amino acids, and usually features an amino acid sequence consisting of glycine, proline and hydroxyproline.
