I normally used Matrigel from Corning, but am told that the lead time for Corning Matrigel is 16 weeks due to the current situation. I then contacted the Thermofisher representative to see if I can try Geltrex. They are not available right now. The person told me he did not know when they are going to be available.
Does anyone here have the same experience?
Thanks!
Hi, I noticed your comment about matrigel shortage, have you considered Type-0 marine collagen from Jellagen?
We have comparative data we would be happy to share. We have stock on the shelf and would love you to try it, please DM one of the sales reps [email protected] if you want to know more.
Kind regards,
Andrew
Hi, another good alternative for BMEs are plant-based nanofibrillar cellulose hydrogels (GrowDex). They are biocompatible and well-defined materials suitable for various 3D cell culture assays.
