  • Easy removal: Stencells are not glued and can be easily removed to trigger cell migration or switch from flow chamber to an open configuration
  • Compatible with imaging: These thin sheets of silicone are fully transparent and do not produce any autofluorescence

Applications:

  • Cell migration, scratch test, wound healing and co-culture with Presto and Allegro:
    • Interaction dominant/dominated cells
    • Defined regions of Rab5A overexpression
  • Parallelized experiments and co-culture with Quartet and Nonet:
    • Differentiation of stem cells or zebrafish embryonic cells
    • Cell behavior in confined conditions
  • Confined experiments with Solo:
