HypoxyCaps® give every lab plug-and-play oxygen control, from single wells to microfluidic chips.
Instant Hypoxia. Precise Control
Why Oxygen Matters
In living tissue, oxygen is rarely higher than 8%, yet most cell cultures are grown at the 18% found in standard incubators, creating results that don’t match biology.
Low-oxygen shapes nearly every hallmark of cancer: they push tumors to spread, make them three-times more resistant to chemo- and radiotherapy, and help cancer cells adopt stem-cell–like traits that drive relapse.
Hypoxia isn’t rare: it’s detected in roughly half of all solid tumors and even healthy stem cells change fate and growth when oxygen falls to 2-5%.
Controlling O₂ in the dish is therefore as critical as choosing the right drug: it determines how cells grow, how they respond, and how your discoveries translate to patients.
Our HypoxyCaps are Designed to be:
TUNABLE
Our synthesis method let’s us finely control the size and contents of hypoxyCaps.
BIODEGRABLE
Designed to degrade in weeks within the body
EASY TO DEPLOY
Can be swapped directly into existing practices.
PRECISELY ENGINEERED
Formulated with special enzymes that starve tumors of what they need to survive.
SHELF STABLE
Made to last for months in storage.
