Gelacell - Aligned PLLA scaffolds fixed to cell crowns in 6-well plate for 3D cell culture (1 plate). INTRO: Gelacell, manufactured by Gelatex Technologies, is a unique, 3D microfibrous scaffold designed for advanced in vitro 3D cell culture and tissue engineering applications. DESCRIPTION: This variant of Gelacell is specially designed for medium-to-long term culture durations. Scaffolds made from pharmaceutical grade poly-L-lactide (PLLA) fibers spun in an aligned manner are fixed to cell crowns in a 6-well plate. The cell crowns act as Boyden chambers for facilitating studies related to air-liquid interface culture, co-culture, complex tissue models, etc. The optimized design ensures thermal, chemical, and mechanical stability, while also providing substantial swelling capabilities and porosity. The aligned fibers provide a structured pathway for cell orientation and growth (particularly beneficial for specialized cell cultures requiring directional tissue development).
