We want to offer you the best possible experience when using the OrganoPlate® for your experiments. This page contains training videos and protocols to get you started. For optimal user experience, we recommend you to follow these 5 steps before your first experiment:

1. Watch the training video(s) below that fit your model of choice (in-gel, tubule or co-culture)
2. Read the basic protocol (for required materials and crucial steps)
3. Practice loading the gel channel of the OrganoPlate® with 2μL distilled water (first column A1-P1; 16 culture units)
4. Prepare buffers, stock solutions, cells, and adjust the protocol to your experimental needs (if required)
5. Start using the OrganoPlate® for your experiments

We hope these steps provided sufficient information to get you started with the OrganoPlate®. If you have any questions or any tips for improvements, don't hesitate to contact us.

An introduction to in-gel seeding in the OrganoPlate®. Watch this video (8 min) if you want to seed your cells embedded in the ECM-gel, recommended for:

• CNS (Neurons& glia)
• Liver (Hepatocytes)

For co-cultures with tubule- and in-gel seeding, we recommend watching the tubule training video as well.
