How do I get even distribution of cells within the Biosilk foam?
When cells are added before foam formation, they are typically integrated evenly throughout the material. The 3D Biosilk foam is created by introducing air bubbles into the Biosilk solution for 10-15 seconds, a process that generally does not disrupt the cells. However, for highly sensitive cell types, it may be preferable to add the cell suspension directly to freshly formed foam, although this may result in slightly less uniform integration. It is important to avoid creating large air bubbles, as this can cause holes in the 3D Biosilk structure.
