For cell therapy and other applications, traditional microcarriers are not always sufficient. Difficulty separating precious cells from traditional microcarriers may result in lower yields of healthy cells in the final product.
Corning Dissolvable Microcarriers are designed to simplify cell harvest, separation and concentration processes. They arrive pre-sterilised and pre-coated with the user’s selected surface coating of either denatured collagen or Synthemax to enhance cell attachment.
The microcarriers are easily dissolved with a solution of EDTA and pectinase within 10–20 min, without the need for microcarrier separation. They offer a cell separation that is said to be faster, gentler and more convenient than that of standard commercially available microcarriers.
The dissolvable microcarriers are suitable for those who need to produce large cell quantities for cell therapy and vaccine production.
