PhenoDrive-U Synthetic Biomaterials

- Overview
  - PhenoDrive-U is based on a glycocalyx binding moiety known to influence the properties of the lipid membrane.
    
    PhenoDrive-U has been used successfully with hepatocytes, stem cells, fibroblasts, chondrocytes, cancer cell lines. Beta tests have successfully used PhenoDrive-U to functionalise nanoparticles and extend drug delivery.
    
    Each vial of PhenoDrive contains 1 mg of freeze-dried product which when reconstituted allows the coating of a 96-well or 24-well plate.

    Background
    
    PhenoDrive are a family of synthetic, peptide-based products specifically designed to promote the appropriate in-vitro cell response to meet the needs of your research.
    PhenoDrives are an easy to use, one step addition to your current in-vitro 2D and 3D culture procedures that, as it is non gel-based, will not interfere with your microscopy or other methods of analysis. PhenoDrives can also be used as an additive for bioinks for 3D cell plotting applications that utilise cells of a neuronal origin.

- Properties
  - Storage
    
    PhenoDrives are supplied as a lyophilised powder for easy reconstitution in a range of aqueous or polar solvents. The lyophilised powder can be stored for up to 24 months at -20°C. Reconstituted PhenoDrives can be stored at -20°C and used within 3 months of freezing.
    
    * For research use only. Not for clinical use or for implantation in humans or animals.
- Applications
  - Application Description
    
    PhenoDrives are recommended for use as a coating for plastics in traditional 2D culture or the decoration of 3D scaffolds and incorporation into bioinks to promote the expansion, differentiation. And control of cells of mammalian origin.
