The Perfecta3D™ Hanging Drop Plate is a high-throughput and versatile three-dimensional (3D) cell culture device that simplifies and streamlines spheroid formation, culture, and subsequent testing of the obtained 3D cellular constructs. Spheroid cultures grown in Perfecta3D Hanging Drop Plates allow drug discovery researchers to easily mimic tissue metabolic and proliferative gradients, to capture complex cell-matrix and cell-cell interactions, and to monitor cell growth easily and regularly.

Perfecta3D Hanging Drop Plates facilitate efficient formation of uniform-size spheroids with reduced consumption of media and reagents. The hanging drop size is securely confined by the geometry of the plate. This eliminates spreading, keeps the geometry of the hanging drop consistent, and provides robust and stable culturing conditions. A water reservoir, constructed around the periphery of the culture sites, alleviates the commonly encountered hanging drop evaporation problem. With media easily maintained from the top of the plate, Perfecta3D Hanging Drop Plates are suitable for long-term spheroid culture. In addition, the standardized 384-well plate format is also compatible with high-throughput screening instruments.

3D Biomatrix, LLC is a life sciences company developing and marketing revolutionary solutions for three dimensional (3D) cell cultures. Cells grown on 3D Biomatrix products have been shown to retain a much higher complexity of body response than cells grown in traditional two-dimensional plates and flasks.
