Technical advantages of SP5D plates

Rounded bottom of microwell for optimal cell aggregation into uniform spheroids

No requirement to do an anti-adhesive pre-coating

Produce many spheroids per pipetting step

Multiple spheroids in a well share the same media

Easy to change media

Patented design of SP5D plates

The design of the microscopic wells with a hemispherical base is optimised to drive the rapid clusturing of cells into compact, rounded spheroids. A unique nanocoating prevents cells from adhering to the surface. Consistently round spheroids are formed, fostering more natural gradient profiles and communication between cells.

The SP5D platform is ideal for consistently generating very large numbers of spheroids per plate boosting the statistical relevance of data from patient derived tumour samples. The platform is also ideal for generating pseudo-islets and spheroids for tissue engineering research.
