Reinnervate, a life sciences company driving the adoption of routine 3D cell culture, today announced the launch of its new, fully interactive website. The site is designed to provide an essential source of scientific and technical information on 3D cell culture based on reinnervate’s core Alvetex technology for academic and industrial researchers, teachers, students and the media.
Alvetex is a scaffold that enables routine 3D cell culture in the lab. By enabling cells to grow in a 3D environment, Alvetex better mimics the conditions experienced by cells when growing in normal tissue. Use of Alvetex therefore provides a more relevant and representative model for investigating how cells and tissues may behave in the body in response to external factors (such as drug candidates) than is currently possible with existing 2D or other emerging 3D cell culture technologies.
