Inserts are designed to fit in multiple well plates, centered in wells, preventing membrane from touching sides and wicking between insert and side wall
Membrane remains suspended above well bottom, allowing co-culture: grow one cell line inside insert, and another below in the well
Ideal for drug transfer assays, transport studies, migration assays, cell-cell interaction studies, and to mimic in vivo conditions
Insert features openings to allow access to lower compartment without removal from plate
24 Well Plates come with 12 inserts to prevent cross-contamination; pass over empty wells instead of in-use inserts
PC membrane is best for cell attachment; PET is best for fluorescence imaging and phase contrast microscopy
0.4?m pore size is ideal for co-culture and drug transport studies
0.4?m PET inserts feature clear membranes for improved cell viewing
3.0?m and 8.0?m pore size are ideal for angiogenesis and chemotaxis experiments
Carrier plate is Tissue Culture Treated which encourages cell adhesion; Non-Treated Plates sold separately
