Loading viscous materials, such as silicone or some formulations of collagen, might be tricky. If you need to transfer a viscous biomaterial to a printing syringe follow these simple steps:

Overview GelMA is a highly used material in bioprinting due to its mechanical properties and printability. However, methacrylating gelatin in the lab is an inconveniently time-consuming process. In addition, buying

Overview Gelatin Methacrylate (GelMA) is a hydrogel composed of denatured collagen that is engineered to crosslink when combined with a photoinitiator, such as LAP. This matrix material is a highly

Overview Immunocytochemistry (ICC) is a laboratory technique that allows for the detection of specific proteins or antigens in cells using selective probes that can be visualized under a microscope. This

Overview AlamarBlue is a fast assay that can measure cell viability. It is based on resazurin, a compound that upon entering living cells is reduced to resorufin. This reaction is

Overview Spheroids and organoids are 3D culture models that have served as simple, yet physiologically relevant organ samples when compared to 2D cell cultures. Researchers have used these models as

Overview Spheroids and organoids are 3D culture models that serve as simple, yet physiologically relevant organ samples when compared to 2D cell cultures. Researchers use these models as a platform

Overview Organs-on-chips have proved to be extremely valuable systems utilized for disease modeling, drug testing, and mimicking organ function. This organ-on-a-chip protocol allows you to build structures with controlled inner

Overview Collagen type I is the most abundant protein in the extracellular matrix and has been widely used in academia and industry for tissue engineering applications. With Allevi’s exclusive CORE™

Overview Liver tissue function is determined by the interaction of cells with their microenvironment, namely through the interpretation of biochemical and mechanical signals present in its tissue-specific extracellular matrix. Hence,

Bioprint Pro allows you to design and bioprint easily repeatable experiments. With it, you get access to a project-based workflow, our Integrated Shape Editor for easy CAD modeling, and optimized

Overview Cells respond to a variety of stimuli present in their culture components such as media and surfaces in which they are cultured. Depending on the application and cell line,
