Mimetix scaffolds provide 3D cell cultures

Mimetix 3D cell culture scaffolds to aid regenerative medicine, oncology research, drug discovery and neural growth and investigation

Compatible with automated handling and imaging equipment AMS Biotechnology’s (AMSBIO) Mimetix scaffold has been incorporated into standard American National Standards Institute (ANSI) footprint microplate frames.

The scaffold depth of 50 µm is thick enough to provide 3D cell culture yet thin enough to allow fluorescent and light microscopic imaging.

Mimetix has been validated with number of primary cells, cell lines and stem cells. The scaffolds mimic the extracellular matrix by providing an architectural environment to support the growth of cells in 3D.

Mimetix scaffolds are free from animal-derived products and are created by electrospinning medical-grade polymer poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) into microfibers which can come in different scaffold shape, composition, thickness, fibre diameter and pore size.
