Description
Description: Stencell - Allegro is a PDMS stencil containing 2 adjacent cell culture areas separated by a 0.62 mm gap. Parallel cultures and subsquent removal of the Stencell - Allegro allows to study cell-migration and conduct wound-healing assays. Stencell can be stuck on a wide variety of supports.
Stencell are ready-to-use silicon chambers that you can stick and remove for cellular confinement or dynamic assays, such as migration or wound-healing.
Stencell was designed to standardize your experiments and minimize the consumption of reagents.
It is very helpful when you are working with super expensive reagents or very rare cell lines, and when you want to test various experimental hypothesis.
Applications
-Cell migration and wound healing with Presto and Allegro
-Interaction dominant/dominated cells
-Defined regions of Rab5A overexpression
-Parallelized experiments with Quartet and Nonet
-Differentiation of stem cells or zebrafish embryonic cells
-Cell behavior in confined conditions
-Confined experiments with Solo
-Fixed epithelial cells growing confluent
