Problem
Developing accurate and repeatable 3D biological models for research is challenging due to limitations in current biofabrication technologies and data formats. This hinders the creation of complex tissue constructs that mimic in vivo conditions, impacting drug discovery and regenerative medicine research.
Solution
Copner Biotech provides a Renderable Biofabrication platform, enabling precise additive manufacturing of complex biological models. Our proprietary GRAPE® (Graphical Rectangular Actual Positional Encoding) data format translates 3D designs into printable instructions for our extrusion bioprinters. This technology facilitates the creation of advanced 3D cell culture scaffolds with controlled oxygen and nutrient gradients, promoting enhanced cell growth and viability. Additionally, we offer custom scaffold design services to meet specific research requirements, allowing for the development of tailored biological models.
Target Audience
Our primary customers are academic research institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and biotechnology firms engaged in cell culture, tissue engineering, and drug development.
