New microplate platform with cryopreserved 3D tumor spheroids

InSphero
18 Apr 2024

Monotypic cancer models based on human tumor cell lines provide a simplified representation of specific cancer types, facilitating focused research and drug development efforts. InSphero presents ARCTis™, or Always Ready Cryo Tissues, using in-plate frozen cell solutions comprising various human tumor cell lines, facilitating a temporal disconnect between the production of 3D cell cultures and their application in experiments. This approach involves producing larger lot sizes, reducing production costs, and ensuring immediate product availability with shorter order lead times. ARCTis serves as a novel tool for early cancer research, offering monotypic cancer models based on human tumor cell lines.

MicroplatesMicroplates are multi-well plates used to increase the throughput of biological investigations. The number of wells microplates contain can range from 6 to 3243 wells, with the 96-well format being the most commonly used. Microplates can come tailored for a range of applications including cell culture, PCR, filtration, storage, non-binding surface, protein crystallization, as well as pre-coated, deep well and normal Standard microplates. Additionally, options for microplate colors include clear , black, white or black with clear bottom and white with clear bottom for absorbance microplate reader applications. Find the best microplates for your lab in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Microplate Readers / DetectorsMicroplate readers are used to automate the detection and analysis of labeled or label-free components in microplates during assays or live-cell monitoring. Microplate readers are generally distinguished by their mode of detection. Types include absorbance, luminescence, fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, TRF / FRET and multimode microplate readers. Microplate readers deliver a high throughput of samples by reading multiple wells simultaneously, with the 96-well format the most commonly used. As a result, microplate readers are often used in the drug discovery, bioassays, research and pharmaceutical industries for screening applications. Microplate loading can also be automated, with robotic microplate stackers to increase throughput.
