milKit is a new system for measuring and refilling sealant in tubeless-ready tire. The startup is a team of experienced engineers, designers and computer scientists that share one passion: mountain biking. They work together to develop solutions to everyday problems that they face as mountain bike enthusiasts. The idea for milKit originated from a personal need that those of you that ride tubeless will understand: the need to know how much sealant is in our tires. Because no one wants to deflate and dismount their tires before every ride a solution was needed. The solution to this is milKit, the simple and clean way to measure and refill tire sealant.
Pharmaceutical companies normally use 2D cell culture to test new drugs. But 3D structures imitate organs and tumors much better. That`s why 3D cell culture offers many advantages over traditional 2D techniques. CellSpring has developed the 3D Bloom platform which enables creation of biomimetic microtissues independent of cell type in a matter of minutes. 3D Bloom improves upon existing 3D cell culture technologies with regard to speed of fabrication, reliability, versatility, and ease of use.
