The growing push for 3D cell culture models is limited by technical challenges in handling, processing, and scalability to high-throughput applications. To meet these challenges, Greiner Bio-One offers an innovative technology called magnetic 3D bioprinting, in which cells are individually magnetized and assembled with magnetic forces without changing the phenotype or the physiology of these cells. Magnetization of cells not only makes routine cell culture and experiments feasible and scalable, but also enables scientist to have fine spatial control in the formation of spheroids or more complex structures.
This presentation will focus on recent developments using magnetic 3D bioprinting, particularly in cancer biology and immunology. Specifically, it will demonstrate a method for phenotypic profiling of cell types within spheroids using real-time high-throughput imaging.
