Enhance Your 3D Cell Culture
3D cell cultures, such as spheroids, organoids, or cells in 3D scaffolds, are increasingly adopted for in vitro studies, delivering a more precise representation of the in vivo environment compared to traditional 2D cultures. And now, with advanced cultivation methods such as dynamic flow culture or bioprinting, it is possible to create 3D tissue conditions that are even closer to the biological origin. Hence, 3D cell culture models and advanced cultivation methods lead to more physiologically relevant results with regards to cell viability, gene expression, disease modeling, and drug testing, as well as toxicity studies.
ibidi provides advanced, customizable solutions for the creation and image-based analysis of 3D cell models. Our modular systems are designed to simplify the complexity underlying cutting-edge 3D cell-based assays.
