Cell culture is fundamental to life science research in universities, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and industry. Cells isolated from animal and human tissues in both 2D and 3D environments are used by researchers to study cell biology, treat diseases, and produce antibodies, proteins, and vaccines.
We have everything you need to keep your tissue culture room thriving so you can accomplish your goals, establish relevant cell models, and answer your research questions. Our complete portfolio of cell lines, cultureware, media, supplements, and assay kits offer a variety of choices for every application.
When studying biologically processes researchers want to be confident that they are using reliable, scalable, and verified cell models that withstand review scrutiny. Preparing for your cell culture application requires the right culture models to help you obtain reliable and reproducible data.
We offer a carefully curated, diverse selection of:
- Mammalian Cells
- PromoCell® Primary Cells and BioIVT PBMCs and Immune Cells
- Stem Cells
- iPSC- and Patient-derived Organoid Biobanks
Our models give you the confidence that you have selected the ideal model and reducing the risk in your pipeline. The next step is to determine whether the model is growing and behaving the way biology expects.
Your choice of cell model leads to more choices – like how to build out an experiment that is biologically-relevant that allows the models to grow and thrive while providing publishable data. An important step in the cell culture workflow, engineering fit-for-purpose models helps researchers find the ideal experimental setup to answer their questions. Our portfolio of consumables provide you with the tools to build your models for your application, giving you the confidence in your data so you don’t have to question your data reproducibility and model validity, and includes:
- Corning® Matrigel® and ELPLASIA® Plates
- TrueGel3D® Hydrogel Kits
- Attachment Factors
- Millicell® Plates and Inserts
- Mirus Bio Transfection Reagents
Our products help researchers provide the appropriate environment for healthy propagation of any cell phenotype or application. Choose the ideal culture supplement to create a unique and reliable environment for your cultures.
Cell model performance is important for fast, translatable data. With cellular analysis and cell-based assays researchers can understand and quantify cell health and function, but for reliable analysis you need state-of-the-art assays and a wide variety of reagents that will stand up to reviewer scrutiny. Our vast portfolio of tools and assays for cell culture includes:
- Live Cell Probes
- Cell Viability and Functional Assays
- Corning® 3D Platforms
- Millicell® ERS 3.0 and Millicell® DCI
Discover the ideal cellular assay and instrument for your application!
How well do your results translate to in vivo biology and physiology? Publishable cell biology research often hinges on your data and the decisions you can make from your experimental models. With our collection of PDO biobanks, including gastrointestinal, lung cancer, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, liver, esophageal, ovarian, and breast organoid biobanks, and HUB Organoids Services to outsource compound development for further physiological understanding, you can be confident that your results translate to important biological insights or development pipelines.
