Basement membrane extract (BME) is a type of extracellular matrix (ECM) derived from Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm mouse sarcomas. BME is commonly used in cell culture and tissue engineering to provide a 2-D or 3-D scaffold for cells, allowing them to grow, differentiate, and interact in an environment that closely mimics the native ECM. This makes BME invaluable for modeling the behavior of cells in vivo. All Cultrex BME formulations are rigorously tested to ensure performance, quality, and lot-to-lot consistency.

Product Summary for Cultrex Spheroid Formation Extracellular Matrix and Plate, 96-well
Why Use Cultrex Spheroid Formation Extracellular Matrix and Plate, 96-well?
The Cultrex 10X Spheroid Formation ECM and Plate provide a powerful tool for modeling tumor growth in vitro. Tumor cell aggregates, or spheroids, are more representative of tumors in vivo, and they exhibit several physiological traits including similar morphology, formation of cell-cell bonds, decreased proliferation rates, increased cell survival, tumor dormancy, and a hypoxic core. Applying this model to a 3-D culture cell assay provides a more physiological approach for objectively studying tumor growth.
