EpiCorneal

 

A New 3D in vitro corneal tissue model

 

 

 

 

MatTek’s EpiCorneal ocular tissue model consists of normal human Corneal epithelial cells which have been cultured to form a stratified, squamous epithelium that closely parallels normal human corneal tissue.

 

EpiCorneal provides a unique platform for ocular drug screening, infection and corneal inflammation testing.

 

Ideal for :

 

* Drug Permeability

* Infection Studies

* Eye-related Bioavailability Assessment

* Testing of Ophthalmic Products

* Inflammation

 

Ultra-Structure Features

 

 

 

 

Ultrastructural features of EpiCorneal.  The apical cell layer of EpiCorneal exhibits microvilli (open arrows), tight junctions (white arrows), and desmosomes (closed arrows).  Tight junctions (white arrows) and desmosomes (closed arrow) are observed at the junction of adjacent epithelial cells
