Noviocell BV
• Spin-off: founded Sept 2015
• Prof A. Rowan, Dept Molecular materials, RU and
Prof W. Feitz and Dr E. Oosterwijk, Dept Urology, RIMLS, Radboud UMC
• Our mission is to accelerate life science research in (stem) cell growth and
differentiation by making 3D cell culture feasible for every (stem) cell
biology researcher.
• Polyisocyanopeptide hydrogel is a fully synthetic biomimetic extracellular
matrix with identical biomechanical properties as natural matrices

Polyisocyanopeptide
(PIC) hydrogel
• Physical support for the cells
• Chemical composition of the ECM

Batch variation, animal origin, cell recovery
are drawbacks of current 3D scaffolds
Batch to batch variation Animal originCell recovery with
harsh methods such
as scraping, dissolving
in solvents or enzyme
treatment

PIC hydrogel is reproducible, synthetic &
allows ease of cell recovery
Fully reversible thermo-sensitive which allows for ease of cell or tissue recovery
Easy downstream processing after culturing (DNA, protein analysis or microscopy)
