Improving cell seeding in well plates using a Uniform Cell Seeding (UCS) 3D printed insert

Improving cell seeding in well plates using a Uniform Cell Seeding (UCS) 3D printed insert

When doing cell adhesion studies, we want to know what percentage of the seeded cells actually adhered to the material (for example a thin, spin coated film on a coverslip). We can image the coverslip and using the area and cell density calculate this percentage. However, if the cells are not seeded uniformly, this can aff...
