Cell Alignment Strategies for Organ-on-Chip Technologies

Cell Culture / Jean-Baptiste Blonde / September 10, 2021

The functionalities of organs and tissues are tightly linked with their structure and, the organisation of constituent cells. Cues from the surrounding extracellular matrix direct the orientation and alignment of cells with respect to one another through contact guidance [1]. This microenvironment is crucial in dictating cell fate; affecting morphology, proliferation, differentiation, response to stimuli, […]

The Advantages of Cell Culture Devices & Flexdym for Low-Cost Fabrication

Cell Culture / Jean-Baptiste Blonde / March 5, 2021

Established Methods of Cell Culture Cell culture is a set of biological techniques used to grow cells outside their original in vivo environment, for the purpose of scientific experimentation. It is widely used for in vitro testing in biomedical science to study animal models. However, a great challenge in cell culture techniques is the mimicking
