Collagen for Cell Culture | Thermo Fisher Scientific - US
WEBCollagen is the most widely used extracellular matrix (ECM) protein for cell culture, facilitating cell attachment, growth, differentiation, migration, and tissue morphogenesis. Why is collagen used in cell culture? Collagen I is used in both 2D and 3D cell culture to make the in vitro cellular environment more in vivo -like.
