ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for growing tissue cultures in vitro, which permits a concentration gradient of nutrients to develop through a permeable membrane to which a sample of tissue is attached. The permeable membrane is attached to the bottom end of a cell culture insert that in turn is supported by a flange connected to its upper end on the top of a well containing the nutrients and is self centered in the well by the arrangement of the sidewalls of the cell culture insert. The self centering feature of the insert minimizes capillary action.
