January 27, 2026, Basel, Switzerland & Newark — abc biopply ag and Pathways Preclinical Partners (“Path2P”) today announced a new collaboration aimed at enforcing the integration of abc biopply’s cutting-edge preclinical NAM technology 3D CoSeedis™ within global drug development networks in the US.

abc biopply has released a white paper demonstrating the unprecedented quality of 3D CoSeedis™ in the production of highly homogenous and uniform spheroids for the use in high-throughput and high-content screening applications. Together with Union Biometrica, Inc. (USA) the paper shows how 3D CoSeedis™ can be used as a manufacturing tool to produce large quantities of homogenous and uniform 3D spheroids in a HTS/HCS-compatible 384-well format. The 3D CoSeedis™ platform thereby not only sets new standards in high-volume production of 3D spheroids but it also helps to substantially increase screening efficiency.
