The world-famous and unique Akura™ PLUS Hanging Drop System in a 96-well format with automation-compatible top-loading.
- Loading of cell suspension from the top through unique SureDrop™ inlet engineered for highly uniform and stable hanging drops
- Gravity-assisted formation of uniform spheroid/organoid morphology and functionality in long-term cell culture results in one spheroid per well
- Suitable for many cell types, including cells that don’t normally form spheroids or organoids on ultra-low attachment surfaces
