A modular and disposable system which can be used for the following procedures
- The handling and processing of tissue slices
- In immunocytochemical staining
- In 3-dimensional tissue culture
- In explant tissue culture
Home made devices are no longer necessary. These tissue processing wells are ready to fill all of your needs with the added convenience of being able to process up to 12 tissue specimens at one time (with one unit).
Netwell™ Inserts
The Netwell™ is a polystyrene insert fitted with a polyester mesh bottom for use in 6 and 12-well plates. Available in two mesh sizes and two diameters; the Netwells provide ultimate flexibility in retaining fragile tissues during processing and staining.
Applications
- The polyester mesh acts as a tissue carrier and strainer for immunocytochemical staining and biological and histological fixation. It avoids the risk of losing valuable samples associated with paint-brush transfer
- For 3-D tissue culture, the sterile Netwell provides efficient media permeation and support to cultures grown in gels
- As well, Sterile Netwells allow for easy processing of tissue explants and microcarrier-grown cells
