Fig. 2From: Characterisation of ovine bone marrow-derived stromal cells (oBMSC) and evaluation of chondrogenically induced micro-pellets for cartilage tissue repair in vivoSchematic of macro-pellet and micro-pellet assembly. a Macro-pellets were assembled by centrifuging 2 × 105 oBMSC in V-bottom deep well plates. b Micro-pellets were assembled by centrifuging 5 × 103 oBMSC per microwell, in the Microwell-mesh (a and b adapted from [7]). Microscopic images over a 14-day culture period of c macro-pellets cultured in deep-well plates and d micro-pellets cultured in the Microwell-mesh platform. Scale bar = 1 mm. Images for 2 additional oBMSC donors are shown in Supplementary Figure 6Back to article page
