General description
The Transwell® cell culture inserts feature a distinctive self-centered and hanging design that effectively prevents the unwanted wicking of medium between the insert and outer well. This in turn ensures the uninterrupted and intact co-culturing of cells in the lower compartment, allowing for undisturbed cell growth and maintenance.
Application
The Corning® Costar® Transwell® cell culture inserts are well-suited for cell staining applications and various chemotaxis assays, including fibroblast migration studies, tumor invasion and metastasis, trans-migrational studies, and invasion inhibition research. The inserts have been used in:
- Transwell assay to study the role of TGF-β-MTA1-SMAD7-SMAD3-SOX4-EZH2 signaling axis in hepatocellular carcinoma cells
- MTT Assay to study GAS5-mediated signaling in osteosarcoma cells
- tri-cultured neuroinflammation model
Features and Benefits
- 10 μm thick transparent polyester membrane
- Treated for optimal cell attachment
- Sterilized by gamma radiation Lids included TC-treated surface 0.33 cm2 cell growth area
- Can be coated with a diverse range of extracellular matrices (ECM) and basement membrane extracts (BME)
- Optical clarity enables clear visualization of cell outlines when observed under phase contrast microscopy
- Offers compatibility with histochemical stains and fluorochromes for various cell staining applications
