Description
SoloHill®Microcarriers support cost-efficient scale-up of cell culture, viral vector, and cell therapy manufacturing. These polystyrene solid-core microcarriers have a smooth surface and high surface area for reliable cell attachment, robust expansion, and efficient cell and virus harvesting.
Manufactured in controlled, non-classified cleanrooms, SoloHill®microcarriers undergo lot-specific biocompatibility testing (cell attachment, growth, and viability) to ensure consistent, scalable, and regulatory-ready performance.
Microcarriers with a range of surface chemistries is provided in the SoloHill®Microcarrier Starter Kit to optimize cell–microcarrier interactions across diverse applications:
Plastic: Animal component-free,cross-linked polystyrene - Established solution for routine vaccine processes utilizing, e.g., Vero or HEK cell line.
Plastic Plus: Animal component-free,cross-linked polystyrene, cationic-charged - Improves attachment for sensitive or weakly adherent cells, including MSCs.
Star-Plus: Animal component-free,cross-linked polystyrene, cationic-charged - Supports attachment of high-density, fast-growing Vero, or primary and stem cells.
Hillex®II: Animal component-free,modified polystyrene, cationic-charged - Strongly adherent surface for Vero, Porcine SK-RST, or other difficult-to-attach, fragile cell lines.
Collagen:Cross-linked polystyrene coated with collagen - Promotes rapid attachment and growth of stem cells, such as iPSCs and MSCs.
Fact III:Fast attachment collagen-treated (FACT) polystyrene, cationic-charged - Advanced designed to improve attachment and growth of PSCs, MSCs, and fragile lines.
