FAQs
3D Petri Dish® micro-molds are non-adhesive hydrogel molds that allow cells to self-assemble into uniform, reproducible 3D microtissues (spheroids). They are compatible with standard cell culture protocols and support a wide range of cell types and applications.
3D cell culture provides a more physiologically relevant environment compared to traditional 2D culture. Cells in 3D form natural cell-cell interactions, develop gradients of nutrients and oxygen, and better mimic in vivo tissue architecture — all critical for other studies.
