Collection: Hydrogels, scaffolds, biomatrices

Ilex Life Sciences offers a range of hydrogels, scaffolds, and biomatrices to help you find the right substrate for your cell culture and tissue engineering applications.

• Cellendes 3-D Life Biomimetic Hydrogels
  • The most flexible system for biomimetic hydrogel design, from pre-configured gels to single components for individual gel compositions.
• Ossiform P3D Scaffolds: bone-like 3D cell culture systems
  • Xeno-free, polymer-free bioceramic scaffolds which provide a bone-like niche for in vitro and in vivo studies such as disease modeling, drug screening and bioengineering.
• Gelacell™ 3D Nanofibrous Scaffolds
  • non-woven, highly porous scaffolds specially designed for in vitro 3D cell culture and tissue engineering. It has a unique nanofibrous structure that closely mimics the natural extracellular matrix (ECM).
• 3D G-Scaffolds: conductive graphene foam scaffolds for 3D cell culture
  • A carbon-based biomaterial that demonstrates significant promise as a support structure for cells to attach, grow, and differentiate. The interconnected microporous graphene network provides ideal biomechanical, biochemical, and electrical properties to support 3D cell culture.
• Metatissue®: human protein-based biomaterials
  • Chemically-modified human platelet lysates (hPL) to prepare hydrogels, sponges, and bioinks to improve 3D cell culture, disease modeling for drug development, and personalized medicine advancements. Metatissue® xeno-free solutions were conceived to create predictive and truly translatable 3D biological in vitro models.
• Nexture Bio: animal-component-free plant-based scaffolds and microcarriers
  • Animal-component-free microcarriers, scaffolds, cell-attachment factors, and scientific services to support scalable adherent cell culture across life sciences, food, and personal care. Their innovative solutions replace animal-based and synthetic ingredients with biodegradable, plant-based alternatives that are safe and suitable for use in food.
• Attachment Factors
  • ECM components or synthetic molecules that may be coated onto cell cultureware to mimic the interactions between a cell and the ECM. Attachment factors enable adherent cells to attach to the cell culture surface, facilitating their spreading, growth, and development.
