Description
GelMA is modified with methacryloyl groups to crosslink with a photoinitiator (like LAP) or exposure to UV light (available using INKREDIBLE+, BIO X, and a 365 nm or 405 nm photocuring system). Available with a 0.25 percent LAP photoinitiator. Available as lyophilized powder in our GelMA Lyophilizate Kit for tailoring your own bioink formulation. Read our latest application note on comparing drug response in 2D vs. 3D bioprinted tumoroids.
- Available in a 3 mL cartridge.
- Sterile production and packaging.
- Two-month shelf life.
- For research use only. Not for human use.
Recommended for use with BIO X, a temperature-controlled printhead and a cooled printbed, or INKREDIBLE+ with a heated printhead. Not recommended for use with INKREDIBLE.
Advanced formulations based off of CELLINK GelMA
