Cytotoxicity Studies on 3D Primary Liver Microtissues
18 Jul 2017This application note presents a proof of concept study to demonstrate the feasibility of a 4-color toxicity assay using living Troglitazone and Staurosporine treated primary human liver microtissues. In this assay, the combination of High Content Imaging with Multimode Detection provides complementary readouts for assessing phenotypic changes and potential toxicological pathways beyond general cytotoxicity markers.

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.
