Overview
GrowDex® hydrogels mimic the extracellular matrix and support cell growth and differentiation enabling convenient, reproducible and scalable animal-free culture of 3D spheroids and organoids. Available from Revvity, GrowDex hydrogels are composed of natural nanofibers of cellulose, extracted from wood sourced from sustainable and responsibly managed forests, and are a proven solution for automated cell culture and high-content screening.
Features
Xeno-free culture medium

Reproducible
Manufactured to the highest standards with strict quality control criteria to ensure lot to lot reproducibility
Animal-free
No animal biomolecules interfering with readouts
Optimized for imaging
Transparent, no auto-fluorescence, and tried and tested on Revvity high-content imaging systems
Convenient
Used and stored at room temperature, suitable for liquid handling systems and supplied in prepacked syringes.
Simple protocol – mix GrowDex hydrogels with media and cells
Tunable
Optimal gel stiffness is achieved by dilution with cell culture media. Matrix composition can be optimized easily by supplementing cell culture media with specific biomolecules such as growth factors
