New product for 3D cell culture

Scientists are increasingly using high-fidelity cell culture models that are more predictive of disease states and drug response, often using extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins to closely mimic how tissues grow in vivo.

Invitrogen now offers GIBCO Collagen I, Rat Tail to customers for their 3D cell culture needs.

Collagen is the most widely used ECM for cell culture applications, and it facilitates cell attachment, growth, differentiation, migration and tissue morphogenesis during development, and GIBCO Collagen I is high quality, forms a clearer, firmer gel than other commercially available collagen products and includes protocols for each application.
