Rainbow Coral Corp. (RBCC) Partner Brings Space Down to Earth
One of Rainbow’s partner companies, Nano3D Biosciences (n3D), is bringing a bit of outer space down to earth, and it’s doing it for a good cause. The company has developed a way to simulate the weightlessness of outer space on a small scale, right in the lab, allowing researchers to better create and deal with 3-dimensional biological processes. With the company’s proprietary Bio-Assembler, special reagents deliver biocompatible magnetic nanoparticles to cells. Magnetic forces can then gently levitate and guide cells together as if they were weightless, to quickly induce cell-cell interactions in a true 3D environment as they would react…
