Navigating the Complexities of Cell Culture

Maintaining the ideal environmental conditions and sterility throughout the cell culture process is essential for successful cell-based experiments.

Cell culture is a vital tool that enables scientists to grow cells in a controlled, artificial environment. Using these techniques, researchers can explore biological phenomena, including cellular behavior, disease mechanisms, drug development, cell-cell interactions, and microbial infections. However, maintaining sterility and optimal physiochemical conditions, such as temperature, pH, humidity, and osmolarity, is essential for the growth and survival of 2D and 3D cell culture models. 

Download this compendium to learn how scientists overcome key cell culture challenges, such as microbial contamination, fluctuating environmental conditions, and the edge effect.
