Microcarriers

17 listings from 8 suppliers · 2 Japanese makers

Japanese name: マイクロキャリア(接着細胞 大量培養用)

Microcarriers are small beads that give adherent cells a large growth surface inside a stirred-tank bioreactor, so limited tank volume can still support expansion of cells such as MSCs and virus-producing cells. Buyers compare surface charge, coating and whether the product is animal-component free, based on how well the target cells attach. Positively charged, synthetic peptide, macroporous and dissolvable types are listed here with their makers.
