Description

Millicell Hanging Cell Culture Insert, PET 0.4 µm,   6-well, 48/pk

Background Information

With Millicell inserts, attachment or suspension cells can   access media from both their apical and basolateral sides. Cell growth,   structure, and function more closely mimic what occurs in vivo. In addition,   Millicell inserts make it possible to study both sides of the cell monolayer.
 
  Millicell inserts are available for 24-, 12-, or 6-well plates. The inserts   are easily prepared for SEM and TEM visualizing techniques, and they are   compatible with cellular and/or fluorescent stains.
 
  Insert Formats:
  Millicell Hanging Inserts: Preloaded in receivers or available standalone
  - For co-culturing and permeability assays
  - Unique design allows easier basolateral access than other hanging inserts   with less risk of contamination
  - Available in 5 pore sizes and 3 diameters, including a 1 µm pore size that   is optically transparent for better visualization by microscopy
  - NEW: Available preloaded in 24-well receiver plates or as individual   inserts in 3 diameters
 
 
  Millicell Standing Inserts:
  - Promotes excellent cell growth and provides an exceptional opportunity for   cell studies
  - Available with Biopore (PTFE) membrane, MF-MerckMillipore (mixed cellulose   esters) membrane, and polycarbonate membrane
 
  Millicell Organotypic Insert:
  - For high cell viability and superior study of three dimensional explant   structure
  - Lower height allows them to fit inside a standard petri dish
  - The Biopore™ (PTFE) membrane provides high viability—for as long as 40   days—and excellent trans-membrane oxygen transport
  - The membrane is optically clear and optimized for long-term organotypic   explant maintenance
 
  Membrane Types:
  Biopore Membrane (hydrophilic PTFE)
  - For low protein-binding, live cell viewing, and immunofluorescent   applications
 
  MF-MerckMillipore™ Membrane (mixed cellulose esters)
  - For exceptional anatomical and functional polarization
 
  Isopore™ Membrane (polycarbonate)
  - For growth of attachment-dependent cells without matrix
 
  PET Membrane (polyethylene terephthalate)
  - For growth of attachment-dependent cells without matrix
 
  With Millicell® inserts, adherent or suspension cells can access media from   both their apical and basolateral sides. Cell growth, structure, and function   more closely mimic what occurs in vivo. In addition, Millicell® inserts make   it possible to study both sides of the cell monolayer.
