Because there is a wide range of organoid cell resources from stem cells, patient-derived tissue, co-culture, and PDX, it is hard to tell which organoid hydrogel would perform the best for the researcher’s experiment. Therefore, the VitroGel® ORGANOID Discovery Kit helps researchers screen the four different formulations to determine the best organoid hydrogel version for your organoid conditions.
The VitroGel® ORGANOID Discovery Kit includes the four different formulation types of VitroGel® ORGANOID hydrogels in 2mL :
- VitroGel® ORGANOID 1
- VitroGel® ORGANOID 2
- VitroGel® ORGANOID 3
- VItroGel® ORGANOID 4
Each of the four types has various bio-functional ligands, mechanical strengths, and degradability to fulfill the needs of different organoid culture conditions. From our findings, versions 1, 2, or 3 are suitable for gastric organoids. Versions 1 or 3 are suitable for lung organoids. Versions 2 or 3 are suitable for brain organoids, and versions 3 or 4 are suitable for cancer organoids. By saying that, we still suggest using the Discovery Kit to screen the optimal hydrogel for your organoid conditions quickly.
