CELLINK, the “world’s first” bioink company, has announced the launch of two new tissue model kits called CELLINK SKIN Kit and CELLINK LIVER Kit.
The Gothenburg, Sweden-based company, which was founded in 2016 and is now active in 50 countries, provides researchers with bioprinting technologies so they are able to print human tissues and organs. The 3D printed human tissues and organs are useful for a range of industries, including cosmetic and pharmaceutical.
The new kits provide CELLINK customers with tissue-specific bioinks and antibodies. These can then be used to gain information about the phenotype of tissue models.
CELLINK suggests in a press release that the insight these kits will help researchers get a better understanding of tissue health and will assist them to develop reliable tissue models for drug screening and cosmetic testing.
“With this launch, we continue to grow our product portfolio and offer an increasingly extensive range of tools to enhance research worldwide,” states the company in its press release.
Launch a Result of Collaboration
To launch these new kits, CELLINK has been collaborating with another Swedish company, Atlas Antibodies which has “extensive experience in antibody development and production.” Atlas Antibodies provides the new kits with, you guessed it, the antibodies.
As well as being the world’s first bioink company, CELLINK is also a global leader in bioprinter systems. The company hopes that via these kits, it will strengthen its position in the bioink field. But, this is just the first phase in its multiphase initiative to serve the needs of its collaborators.
