3D cell culture is an artificially-created environment in which biological cells are permitted to grow or interact with their surroundings in all three dimensions. Unlike 2D environments, a 3D cell culture allows cells in vitro to grow in all directions, similar to how they would in vivo.] These three-dimensional cultures are usually grown in bioreactors, small capsules in which the cells can grow into spheroids, or 3D cell colonies.
Scaffold-free 3D cell culture offer many advantages over other 3D cell culture technologies, foremost of which is the completely native nature of cell-cell interactions driving assembly of the microtissue. The absence of scaffold material also facilitates a greater number of downstream assays and imaging options.
The global scaffold free 3D cell culture market is relatively concentrated, the sales of top nine manufacturers include InSphero, N3d Biosciences, Kuraray, Hamilton Company, Synthecon, Qgel Sa, Reprocell Incorporated, Global Cell Solutions and 3D Biomatrix, account about 68% of total global sales. The largest manufacture of scaffold free 3D cell culture is InSphero, with about 25% market shares. The next is N3d Biosciences and Kuraray.
Report Scope
