MULTI-MAGPENMAGNETIC
3D CELL CULTURE TRANSFER
MULTI-MAGPEN
24 WELL & 96 WELL
Your smart assistant for
3D cell culture transfer
The Multi-MagPen facilitates easy and fast transfer andcollection of magnetized cultures without disrupting their tissue
architecture. Cells, cultured by Magnetic 3D Cell Culture (M3D) ,canbe transposed by a simple “pick up-and-drop”-step. Additionally,to that, the Multi-MagPen can be used to create and organize cocultures by combining different magnetized 3D cell cultures.
ADVANTAGES OF THE MULTI-MAGPEN:/ Fast, easy and simultaneous transfer of multiple 3D cell
cultures without pipetting/ Complete media change by a simple “pick up-and-drop”- step
/ Simplified co-culturing of different cell types/ Ideal for easy immunohistochemistry staining, blocking, andwashing of spheroids

RECOMMENDED HANDLING

1Take off the lid of the donor plate (microwell platecontaining 3D cultures or spheroids) and insert
the sterile Multi-MagPen Sleeve in the wells of theplate and the magnetic Multi-MagPen Drive into theMulti-MagPen Sleeve.

2

Carefully make 2-3 circular movements withthe plate on the desk to facilitate 3D cell cultureattachment to the Multi-MagPen Sleeve.

3Gently lift the Multi-MagPen Drive with its sleeve off
the receiver plate. The magnetized 3D cell cultures
will stick to the Multi-MagPen Sleeve and will beheld by the magnetic force of the Multi‑MagPen
Drive during transfer to the receiver plate.

4Take out the Multi-MagPen Drive from theMulti‑MagPen Sleeve and transfer it with thereceiver plate (without the Multi-MagPen Drive) on
a Holding Drive to detach 3D cell cultures from theMulti-MagPen Sleeve.
