Fluorescence is the property of some atoms and molecules to absorb radiation at a particular wavelength and subsequently emit light at a longer wavelength upon excitation of the atoms. A fluorescence microscope is a powerful optical tool that works based…
Cryoprotectants are crucial in storing biological samples at a deep cryogenic temperature. Cryoprotecting agents lower the melting point of water when dissolved in it and prevent ice formation by increasing the total concentration of all the solutes present in the…
Three-dimensional (3D) organoid technology has become popular among researchers in the past decade because of its ability to recapitulate the physiology and genetics of organs or tissue samples. Despite the promising applications of organoids in basic research, a lot of…
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Cryopreservation is the process of storing and preserving structurally intact biological material at low temperatures. Cryopreservation is a key activity in many culture cell labs providing a stable and safe way to store organisms, organelles, tissue, cells, and other biological…
Cryopreservation is the process of preserve living samples by cooling them to a very low temperature. Cryopreservation plays a crucial role in basic research as well as clinical applications. For instance, cells and other viable tissues cannot be stored for…
Organoids are miniaturized tissue cultures that are derived from stem cells or tissue-specific progenitor cells. Organoids have made it possible to create individual, complex, and self-organizing 3D tissue cultures bearing a resemblance to a patient’s own organ or tissue. This…
Organoids are in vitro miniaturized three-dimensional (3D) model systems of organs that gained huge interest in the last decade. Organoids are self-organizing culture systems generated from stem cells or tissue-specific progenitor cells. Stem cells divide indefinitely and produce different types…
Organoid models are a popular and reliable method in 3D cell culture. Organoids are 3D cellular structures, derived from either stem cells or organ specific progenitor cells. When provided with an external scaffold like Matrigel, they form a complex cluster…
Human primary cells are isolated directly from human tissues and maintain the physiological characteristics of their original tissue. This article discusses the most common primary cells used by scientists (1,2). Endothelial cells In the human body, endothelial cells form a…
Primary cell cultures refer to the cultivation of cells that are directly isolated from human or animal tissues and processed to grow under controlled conditions in vitro. They represent the in vivo state of cells more closely than immortalized cell…
