Platypus Technologies introduces new surfaces for Oris™ Cell Migration Assays: Poly-L-lysine and basement membrane extract.

Polylysine surfaces contain positively-charged amine groups that enhance attachment of negatively-charged proteins and cells. Polylysine surfaces are popular for culturing cell lines derived from nerve tissue (e.g. neurons, glial cells, fibroblasts, epithelial cells).

The basement membrane extract (BME) contains multiple extracellular matrix proteins, including laminin and collagen. Surfaces coated with BME support cell culture assays of epithelial cells, endothelial cells, muscle cells and stem cells.

Don’t see what you need?  We can coat most metals (Ag, Ni, Ti, etc.) on to silicon or glass.  Also, we can cut silicon and glass to any size (>5 mm). Contact us for custom products.

Platypus Technologies announces new products: Glass chips and Silicon chips for applications in Microscopy and Spectroscopy.

The products include ultra flat silicon chips, and silicon chips coated with Gold, Platinum or Silica. In addition, single-packed silicon wafers are available too. Glass chips include aluminosilicate, SF-10, N-BK7 and UV-grade fused silica.

The chips can be used for studies in nanotechnology imaging via Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) or Fluoresence Microscopy. The chips can be use as substrates to support samples for nanospectroscopy (AFM-IR)
