3D CoSeedis™ easy microscopy and in-chip imaging of 3D spheroids/organoids - from life-imaging to live/dead™ assays
The analysis of 3D spheroids/organoids can be challenging. Particularly image capturing of 3D spheroids/organoids in an automated and high-throughput context can be cumbersome and time consuming. With 3D CoSeedis™, spheroids/organoids have become assessable for automated image acquisition, both in terms of 3D life-imaging and endpoint analysis. 3D CoSeedis™ makes automated high-throughput imaging possible through:
Transparent, non-fluorescent chip matrix allows in-chip imaging of spheroids/organoids
Unique 3D CoSeedis™ chip design fixes all spheroids/organoids in a defined positions relative to each other
Defined positions of spheroids/organoids in the same focal plane (z-axis) allows easy automated image capture
In-chip staining protocols allow whole-mount immunofluorescence or immunohistochemistry
In-chip live/dead™ staining protocols allow easy assessment of spheroid/organoid viability
The splitting of 3D-CoSeedis™ chips enables the simultaneous analysis of spheroids/organoids in different downstream analytical procedures, e.g. imaging, IHC, RNA profiling.
But the possibilities in high-content analysis of spheroids/organoids with 3D CoSeedis™ go much further. For example, the splitting of 3D-CoSeedis™ chips enables the simultaneous analysis of spheroids/organoids in different downstream analytical procedures, e.g. imaging, IHC, RNA profiling. The advantage in this approach is evident: for all types of analyses, the spheroids/organoids are grown under identical conditions and have been subjected to the same treatments, thus the represent biological replicates giving the analyses statistical relevance.
