Disclosed herein is a transport device comprising a first section of an outer container comprising a shell on the inside having the shape of a spherical cap with an inner diameter and an opening, wherein the opening of the spherical cap faces upwards, and an inner container having an upper section, a lower section and an inner hollow volume defined thereby, wherein at least the lower section has a spherical shape on the outside, the outer diameter of which is smaller than the inner diameter of the spherical cap of the outer container. The inner container is suitable to be arranged in the spherical cap of the outer container in a freely pivotable fashion, and is capable of accommodating a payload.

Transport device with an inner container

Provided is a system and a method for propagating cells, the system comprising a multi well plate and a plate sealing means for sealing at least one well of a multiwell plate, the plate sealing means comprising at least one solid bulge or at least one bulge comprising a solid base, said at least one bulge consisting of a resilient elastomer to securely seal at least one well of the multiwell plate. Also disclosed is the use of such a system for propagating cells and the corresponding method.

System for propagating cells

Disclosed are devices for propagating at least one microtissue, methods for manufacturing such devices, and the use us such devices, said devices comprise at least one well, wherein said at least one well comprises an open upper section comprising an open upper end and an open lower end, and a lower section comprising an open upper end and a bottom end, wherein the upper section and the lower section are in fluid communication, and wherein the bottom end of the lower section of at least one well of said plurality of wells is provided with a well bottom, said lower section of said at least one well has a smaller cross-sectional area than the open upper section of the same well.

Device for propagating microtissues

Multi-well plate () comprising a plurality of wells (), a frame () for holding the plurality of wells () in a defined arrangement, a support element () for contacting a surface when the multi-well plate () is placed on the surface, wherein at least one well () of the plurality of wells is elastically displaceable relative to said support element ().
