Biomedical research is gravitating towards 3D cell culture models and tissue printing. At n3D, we sell kits and services for 3D cell culture. Our core technology is the magnetization of cells, which can then be directed using magnetic forces. In this manner, we can either levitate or bioprint cells. These cultures are faster to assemble than other systems and easier to handle with magnets without losing samples. Check out our products and ourservices for more information on our technology, and how we can help you!
