Predictive 3D cell culture for the next generation of drug discovery
Cell2Bio AB is a Swedish biotech startup based at KTH and SciLifeLab. Our proprietary nanocellulose-enabled surface platform lets cells grow in true three-dimensional environments, forming physiologically relevant spheroids that bridge the gap between 2D assays and in vivo biology.

Innovations for Life
We translate world-class research in cell-material interactions into scalable consumables. Our platform combines high biological relevance with simple handling, washing, imaging, and retrieval — so researchers can build more predictive models without changing their workflow.
C2B 3D plate
A 96-well plate coated with our proprietary nanocellulose-enabled technology. It enables rapid, reproducible 3D spheroid formation, facilitates washing and media exchange, supports secure transfer, and is optimized for high-throughput screening.
- 96-well format compatible with standard incubators and readers
- Facilitates washing and media exchange without losing spheroids
- Supports patient-derived tumoroids and multicellular models
- 12-month product stability and reproducible batch performance

Built for life science
Our platform supports a wide range of research areas where physiologically relevant cell models matter — from early drug discovery to personalized medicine.
Drug discovery
Improve hit identification and toxicity prediction with spheroid models that mimic in vivo biology.
Cancer research
Study tumor-like microenvironments including breast, lung, brain, skin, pancreatic, and colorectal models.
Regenerative medicine
Support the development of cell therapies and tissue models with robust 3D culture formats.
Cell biology
Explore cell signaling, differentiation, and morphology in a more natural three-dimensional context.
High-throughput screening
Run industrial and academic screening campaigns in a standard plate format with liquid-handler compatibility.
Organoid & organ-on-chip
Bridge spheroids to organoids and integrate with microfluidic systems for advanced model development.
Toxicity testing
Assess spheroid-based toxicity for cosmetics and pharmaceutical safety studies.
Gene therapy
Test synthetic biology and gene-therapy constructs in relevant 3D cell models.
