Millicell® cell culture insert plates are a patented device designed to support cell growth and differentiation of endothelial and epithelial cell lines, including CaCo-2.
The Millicell® device is available with a 0.4 µm PCF and a variety of PET membrane pore sizes. The plate is designed for maximum user convenience and incorporates features such as apical assist for easier pipetting and basolateral access. To reduce the risk of monolayer contamination, the membrane plates have feet to elevate the plate above the work surface when disassembled from the feeder tray. Tear drop-shaped receiver wells eliminate air bubbles as plates are assembled.
Millicell® plates are optimized to grow and sustain high integrity cell monolayers. Cells grown on Millicell® plate membranes grow better than on plastic because the cells are nourished from both the apical and basolateral sides. Cell growth and function more closely mimic in vivo. Millicell® plates are designed for analysis as well as cell growth and can be used manually or with automated cell seeding, feeding and washing systems

The value of cell culture experiments lies in how well they represent the native microenvironments of in vivo systems. In this application note, Millipore Sigma explores the advantages of using microporous membranes, compared to 2D plastic surfaces, to provide more in vivo-like cell growth environments for cell culture experiments.

Membrane-based culture systems foster a more in vivo-like cell growth environment and support a range of applications including primary and secondary screening, transport assays, toxicity screening, cell signaling, cell proliferation and ADME/toxicity drug studies. In this application note, Millipore details the features of the Millicell® cell culture product family and reveals how membrane-based cultureware can closely recapitulate in vivo conditions.
