Ultralow Cell Binding Cultureware<br />

HydroCell is a low cell biding cultureware. On its surface, super hydrophilic<br />

polymer was immobilized at nano-thickness. This hydrophilic character helps<br />

the formation of embryoid bodies of ES/iPS cell or Spheroid in culture.: Compared<br />

to other brands' low cell binding cultureware, HydroCell shows lower<br />

cell binding.<br />

<br />

• Super hydrophilic polymer is immobilized to the surface of the cultureware<br />

at nano-thickness.<br />

• Lowest attachment rate among similar competitive brands.<br />

• Three formats : Microplates, Dishes and Flask types.<br />

<br />

• Formation of embryoid bodies of ES cells in culture<br />

• Formation of anchorage-independent colonies<br />

• Differentiation such as cartilage (spheroid formation)<br />

• Culture & storage of macrophage/immune cells<br />

• Screening of anti-cancer drugs (replacement for soft agar assays)<br />

<br />

Fig.2 Comparison to other brand products<br />

Mouse macrophages were incubated for 3 days in (1) HydroCell, (2) another brand's product and (3) non-treated cultureware. Only HydroCell allowed<br />

uniform suspension culture (>99% of the cells remained in suspension), simple cell dissociation and harvesting by pipetting.<br />

HydroCell, while adhesion was observed on other low cell binding dish. (Data provided by A. Umezawa, National Center for Child Health and Development)<br />
