GC0601RN – SC-C

Gelacell™ is a unique, 3D microfibrous scaffold specifically engineered for advanced in vitro 3D cell culture and tissue engineering applications. Designed as a non-woven, highly porous scaffold, Gelacell™ offers exceptional biocompatibility and non-toxicity across a variety of cell types. This product includes a 10 cm × 10 cm scaffold sheet that offers a 3D structure allowing cells to grow in a more physiologically relevant manner, promoting cell-cell interactions, tissue-like organization, and cell polarization, which are challenging to achieve in traditional 2D cell culture. The sheet can be used in its presented format or can be cut into desired shape and sizes depending on the user’s experimental needs and setups. The scaffold is perfectly tailored for the cultivation of complex systems like cell microenvironments, tissue regeneration, and organoids, Gelacell™ also makes a robust platform for drug screening and other cell culture investigations. The optimized design of the scaffold ensures thermal, chemical, and mechanical stability, while also providing substantial swelling capabilities and porosity, allowing efficient nutrient diffusion, and thereby preventing cellular waste build up.
