Corning Matribot Bioprinter With Starter Package

An easy-to-use tool for 3D cell culture.

Why Choose the Corning™ Matribot™ Bioprinter?

Convenient, Steady Temperature Control

Dispenses a variety of materials without the need for a compressor. The syringe printhead can accommodate a variety of different materials from Corning™ Matrigel™ matrix to Collagen, as well as other ambient-temperature bioinks such as Alginate-based hydrogels, and can dispense into a variety of vessels including multiwell plates, Petri dishes, and microplates as small as 384-well, with high precision and control.

Cooling Syringe Printhead

The cooling syringe printhead can chill material, perfect for when using temperature-sensitive ECM materials such as Corning Matrigel matrix. The printhead is designed to hold material steady at the desired temperature, while the bioprinter’s insulator helps to reduce clogs at the nozzle tip.

Heated Printbed and UV Curing System

Pre-heat the printing surface or polymerize post-print with the heated printbed, which is ideal for maintaining print structure for low viscosity materials such as Corning Matrigel matrix or Collagen. The unit also contains a 405 nm LED curing system for inks that require UV crosslinking.

Applicable Solutions

3D Cell Culture and Bioprinting

Bioprinting fabricates a 3D tissue-like construct, layer-by-layer using cells, spheroids, or organoids suspended in a bioink. Bioprinting makes it possible to reproduce structural features seen in vivo and explore the cell-to-cell relationships that affect tissue functionality. The new Corning Matribot bioprinter is a breakthrough benchtop device that enables you to dispense and print with temperature sensitive hydrogels such as Corning Matrigel matrix and Collagen without cold blocks, ice buckets or cold room, as well as hydrogels that require ambient temperature. Unlike other bioprinters, the Matribot bioprinter uses a syringe-based extrusion platform with a temperature-controlled printhead, insulated nozzles, printbed that can be heated, and a UV LED system, all staged in a small footprint.

Discover the Product

1. Small but Mighty

The Corning Matribot bioprinter packs everything you need into a small footprint that fits inside a standard lab hood or biosafety cabinet.

2. Reliable Printhead

A breakthrough device with a revolutionary cooling syringe based printhead, the Corning Matribot Bioprinter can dispense and print with Corning Matrigel matrix. The cooling syringe printhead keeps temperatures steady, while the insulator helps reduce clogs at the nozzle tip.

3. Easy Prep and Cure

Preheat the printing surface with a heated printbed to maintain print structure for low-viscosity temperature-sensitive materials such as Corning Matrigel matrix or Collagen. Use the UV LED system to crosslink UV-curable inks.

4. Precision With Every Drop

The syringe printhead can accommodate a variety of different materials from Corning Matrigel matrix to Collagen, as well as other ambient-temperature bioinks such as alginate-based hydrogels, and can dispense into a variety of vessels including Petri dishes, multiwell plates, and microplates as small as 384-well, with high precision and control.
