New! Brand® Insert 2in1 Cell Culture Inserts

BRAND® Insert 2in1 Cell Culture Inserts

BRAND Insert 2in1* is suitable for 2D and 3D cell culture. The BRAND Insert 2in1 can be used as both a standing insert and a hanging insert. When used as a hanging insert, it fits nearly all standard multiwell plates. In larger wells and culture dishes, the insert can be used in a standing position. The cell culture insert is available for 6-, 12-, and 24-well plates and in two pore sizes (0.4µm and 8.0µm) with PC or PET membrane. The cellGrade™ plus surface of the membranes ensures optimal cell attachment and growth. They are available individually packed or in multi-packs.

Common applications include co-culture, transmigration, chemotaxis, transport/barrier analysis (TEER), cytotoxicity and air-lift culture assays.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Are the BRAND Insert 2in1 cell culture inserts compatible with 6-, 12-, and 24-well plates of other manufacturers?
Yes, the inserts fit nearly all standard multiwell plates.

2. Is it possible to remove the membrane from the inserts?
Yes. With a sharp blade, the PET and PC membranes can be removed from the insert. PET membranes are slightly more stable than PC membranes and will not curl after they are released from the insert?

3. Are cells cultured on PC or PET membrane visible under light microscope?
With the help of phase contrast microscopy, cells cultured on PET-membranes can be seen well. Cells cultured on PC-membranes are poorly visible.

4. What is the distance between the well bottom and membrane?
When used in a standing configuration, there is a 1mm gap between the membrane and bottom of dish or well.

5. Is the BRAND Insert 2in1 sterile?
Yes. It is manufactured in a Class 8 cleanroom in accordance with ISO 14644-1. It is sterile according to ISO 11137 with an SAL 10-6. It is nontoxic and free of pyrogen and endotoxins according to LAL test, detection limit 0.01 EU/mL.
