Matrigen Life Technologies is intent on transforming the landscape of cell culture, making cell culture more realistic without making life more complicated for the bench scientist. In 2012, Matrigen introduced Softwell® to the world-- hydrogels that can be tuned to match the softness of the body’s tissues. Using this platform, researchers can routinely culture neurons in an environment as soft as the brain, cardiomyocytes upon the stiffness of muscle, or whatever their cells’ tissue of origin may be. Today, Matrigen provides an extensive line of hydrogel-based products to laboratories across the US, Canada, Europe, and Asia.
