Multi-Well Plate With Uniform Electric Field (No. 0088)

Summary

A novel multi-will plate that provides a uniform electric field for cell culturing.

The global cell culture market size is projected to reach USD 37,000 million by 2027, at a CAGR of 10.9%. Cell culture is defined as growing live plant, animal or human cells under controlled conditions (in vitro). This artificial environment is composed of nutrients such as ideal temperature, gases, pH, humidity and electric field, which are essential for the growth and proliferation of the cells. However, it is difficult to create a uniform electric field (EF) in in-vitro electric field stimulation devices, particularly standard circular culture-ware. This results in a reduced usable area and cell yield during assays. Here we present a promising multi-well plate developed by a group of researchers led by Prof. Amy Shen. The multi-well plate is designed to produce a uniform electric field to overcome the above problem.

Applications

• Tissue Engineering
• Electroporation
• Protein Production

Advantages

• High cell yield (one order of magnitude)
• Increased usage culture area (two fold)
• Modular design for easy adaptability to existing culture-ware
