Designed to produce a cell culture environment closely resembling the in-vivo state
Allow polarised cells to feed basolaterally and thereby carry out metabolic activities in a more natural way
Unique self-centring hanging design prevents media-wicking between the insert and the outer wall
Windows in the insert wall permit access to the lower compartment
Available in a range of membranes and pore sizes for various applications
