Permeable Cell Culture Inserts easily mimic In Vivo conditions with two membrane materials and four porosities .
Inserts center in wells, which allows pipette access to the lower chamber and prevents wicking between insert and side wall. Inserts hang above tissue culture-treated wells, allowing co-culture; grow cells on both the insert membrane and the well bottom (non-treated plates sold separately)
• PC (Polycarbonate) membrane is best for cell attachment • PET (Polyester) membrane best for imaging and microscopy • 0.1µm and 0.4µm PET inserts feature clear membranes for improved cell viewing • 0. 1µm and 0.4µm pore sizes are ideal for cell-cell interaction and drug transport studies • 3.0µm and 8.0µm pore sizes are ideal for angiogenesis, migration, and chemotaxis

PC (Polycarbonate); PET (Polyester). Compare with Corning® Transwell® inserts.
