Maximize Organoid Insight Using Live-Cell Imaging and Analysis
Advances in human disease research, specifically regenerative medication and precision therapies have resulted from ground-breaking work using in vitro 3D cell models. These advanced cell models have been shown to display structural, morphogenetic and functional properties that resemble in vivo pathophysiology, creating a complex cell model for predictive and translational research. However, to establish and accelerate organoid relevance to clinical outcomes, approaches are required that can reduce variability while also increasing insight. Innovations in culturing ex vivo human models has opened a world of scientific possibilities but are still limited by the technologies used to characterize these complex cell models.
- May introduce variability due to lack of environmental control and inadequate 3D Cell Culture protocols that compromise organoid cell health
- Low-throughput and do not scale for screening
- Subjective random assessment of organoid cell growth, death or morphology
- Involve time-consuming, expensive and manual processes for acquisition of organoid images
- Require third party software for end point analysis, or additional fluorescent marker - with limited quantitative information
The Incucyte® Organoid Assay addresses the challenges of 3D organoid workflows, through integration of an optimized assay protocol and software solution that enables real time, label-free analysis for efficient, reliable, multiparametric monitoring of organoids in physiologically relevant conditions. Drive organoid insights and the development of novel therapies with ease using the Incucyte® Organoid Analysis Software Module.

Example Data - Organoid Assay
Locate and Acquire Organoids Automatically
Track organoids embedded in Matrigel® continuously and kinetically assess growth and morphology characteristics.
Figure 1. Kinetically monitor distinct organoid phenotypes using the Incucyte® Live-Cell Analysis System. Mouse intestinal, hepatic and healthy human brain organoids were seeded (50% Matrigel®) into 96-well plates and imaged in an Incucyte®. Brightfield videos taken 3d post seeding and images show cell type specific morphology & growth characteristics.
Locate and analyzes organoids automatically for powerful insight into morphology, size and count
Figure 2. Kinetically monitor distinct organoid phenotypes using the Incucyte® Live-Cell Analysis System. Mouse intestinal organoids were seeded as single cells (200 cells/µwell) into an Incucyte® 3D Nanowell Plate 500 µm. Brightfield video taken 0d post seeding show organoid formation, growth and maturation (0 – 10d post seeding).
Figure 3. Mouse intestinal, hepatic and healthy human brain organoids were seeded (50% Matrigel®) into 96-well plates and imaged in an Incucyte®. Brightfield videos taken 3d post seeding and images show cell type specific morphology & growth characteristics in 3D cell cultures.
