3D Cell Culture Models | Corning

Ready to move beyond the monolayer? Bring experiments to life with 3D cell culture.

3D cell culture captures more aspects of the in vivo environment, making lab experiments more biologically relevant. Corning can help you break through the barriers and start making discoveries quicker.

3D cell culture can:

  • Deliver more predictive outcomes in preclinical drug discovery.
  • Capture aspects of tumor biology that 2D culture cannot, such as diffusion gradients and the biophysical environment.
  • Open new possibilities for experiments using patient-derived cells, engineered tissues, organoids, and tumoroids.
  • Provide a substitute for model animals in certain contexts.
