 Inter-connected cell culture systems: Kirkstall has developed an advanced cell culture system to provide in vivo - like conditions for cell growth. The system can be configured to culture multiple cell types under controlled nutrient flow. By closely mimicking human metabolism the system provides a more physiologically accurate representation than culture grown in static well plates. Kirkstall’s interconnected cell culture systems provide a Quasi VivoTM environment for cell growth. The system has many applications in biotechnology, pharmaceutical, chemical, cosmetic and research industries. The modular based system incorporates a dynamic flow of nutrients through multiple cell culture chambers. Each chamber can
culture individual cell types or tissue allowing cell-to-cell signalling between and within each chamber. The result is a high quality screening system which can generate improved metabolic information for many pharmaceutical applications, speeding up drug development, improving product safety and reducing animal testing - and saving money for our clients. The Kirkstall Quasi VivoTM cell culture system is available in a ‘kit’ format (link) or is accessible on a contract research basis from Kirkstall (link) |
