One of the obstacles to working with 3D cell cultures is how to extract meaningful data from them. To address this problem, Visikol has developed their Visikol® HISTO-M™ tissue clearing reagent that allows for complete 3D cell culture characterization using confocal imaging or a 3-fold increase in cells detected using wide-field microscopy. This tissue clearing approach has been developed to be rapid and compatible with multi-well plates so that it can be conducted using automated pipetting robots and high content confocal imaging systems.
By attending this webinar you will learn about:
- Methods to enable 3D cell culture
- Ways to enhance imaging and characterization of 3D spheroids
