Monitoring neuronal morphology in long-term in vitro cell cultures is critical for characterisation and evaluation of disease models and to understand neuronal development. Ideally, approaches to track neurite dynamics would allow continuous automated measurements of structural parameters, including neurite length and number of branch points. These methods should be non-perturbing and enable quantification of neurons […]

Download our new whitepaper ‘From bench to billions: A guide to facilitating scale-up of adherent cultures for cell and gene therapies’, brought you by Corning. Given the potential of emerging advanced therapies, market demand is likely to continue to grow. Generating the required quantity of cells efficiently becomes even more challenging when the cells of […]

Given the potential of emerging advanced therapies, market demand is likely to continue to grow. Generating the required quantity of cells efficiently becomes even more challenging when the cells of interest are attachment-dependent, such as induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). The choice of cell culture platform will have significant operational and commercial impacts. Download this […]

Scientists showcase how the concentration of chemicals in droplets can be efficiently controlled by running experiments in the tiniest of cell cultures. These findings could be useful for more effective drug screening and cell-based analysis. Droplet-array sandwiching technology (DAST) lets one use droplets as tiny reaction chambers or cell culture media. In a recent study, […]

Culturing cells in 3D is simply a more realistic way to model how cells move and function in vitro. Spheroids, organoids, and more complex 3D systems have been invaluable to research, drug discovery, and personalised medicine. This e-book, sponsored by Corning, offers a practical guide for demystifying spheroids and organoids together with helpful tips for successfully […]

UPM Biomedicals has entered into an agreement with PerkinElmer to act as a distributor of the UPM GrowDex and GrowDase range of products. This new collaboration will offer researchers a complete solution for high throughput screening (HTS) of 3D cell cultures in early drug discovery, combining PerkinElmer’s cell imaging and automation solutions and knowledge with UPM’s animal-free 3D reagent […]

From basic to translational research and clinical applications, cell culture is an essential technique that underpins the generation of promising cell and gene therapies, says Abcam. Since the quality of cytokines and growth factors can significantly influence the properties and function of cultured cells, these bioactive proteins must be produced to the highest standards to […]
