Transwell Permeable Supports

Permeable supports, also known as cell culture inserts, are an essential tool for the study of both anchorage-dependent and independent cell lines.
You can use cell culture inserts to:
- Produce a cell culture environment that closely resembles an in vivo state
- Allow polarized cells to carry out metabolic activities in a more natural manner because the cells feed both apically and basolaterally
- Co-culture cells with or without cell-to-cell contact
- Design a diversity of experiments using various pore sizes, membrane types, and coatings

Transwell Permeable Supports: a Laboratory Standard!
Transwell inserts are convenient, ready-to-use permeable support devices pre-packaged in standard multiple well plates. The unique, self-centered hanging design prevents medium wicking between the insert and outer well. Transwell inserts are available in a wide variety of sizes, membrane types,
and configurations, and they are backed by extensive citations, protocols, and technical support—all of which has helped to make them the leading brand of cell culture insert for more than 25 years.
