In the search for greater accuracy in vitro, researchers are increasingly turning to more complex live-cell assay systems that recapitulate key aspects of in vivo conditions. These include (1) more relevant tissue organization, (2) bio-matrices containing structural proteins and growth factors, and (3) the presence of stromal and immune cells. In this event, we describe integrated protocols and live-cell analysis solutions for different 3D tumor models, ranging from simple mono-culture single spheroid assays through to multi-spheroid tumor/fibroblast and tumor/immune cell co-cultures in a Matrigel biomatrix.

In this webinar, expert industrial pharmacologist Kalpana Patel discusses how to:

  • Assemble 96-well 3D spheroid assays in both round-bottom ultra-low attachment microplates, and flat plates on a Matrigel base
  • Automatically acquire and analyze images over time
  • Quantify tumor growth, morphology and viability, either label-free or with fluorescent cell health markers
  • Study the impact of stromal cells and immune cells on tumor biology in these 3D systems
  • Gain greater biological insight and productivity in your 3D tumor assays

The live webinar takes place on Thursday, August 3, 2020, at:

  • 16:00 BST
  • 11:00 EDT
  • 08:00 PDT
  • 17:00 CEST

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.
