Produced using a patented dry-spinning technology – CollaFibR™ from AMSBIO is a highly consistent collagen fibre matrix that closely mimics the biomechanical and biochemical properties of natural collagen scaffolds, offering a highly accurate representation of in-vivo conditions.
These innovative collagen fibres are seamlessly produced on a commercial scale using an automated state-of-the-art Good Manufacturing Process, catering to a variety of applications in 3D cell culture and tissue engineering.
Offered as a user friendly 12-well plate insert – CollaFibR™ scaffolds are perfect for creating physiologically relevant environments for 2D and 3D cell culture applications by inducing cellular alignment, migration, and elongation. AMSBIO can also offer custom CollaFibR™ scaffolds tailored to meet your specific needs, as our automated manufacturing process allows us to control the thicknesses, porosities, and alignment of our scaffolds with a high batch-to-batch consistency and higher cell viability.
