Kollodis BioSciences, Inc. announced today that it has entered into a Distribution Agreement with Almog Diagnostic for the distribution of Kollodis BioSciences, Inc.'s MAPTrix® ECM line of products for cell culture and related applications.
Dr. Louis M. Scarmoutzos, President & CEO of Kollodis BioSciences, Inc., stated, "We are absolutely delighted with this distribution agreement.

Almog Diagnostic has an excellent reputation with their customers and suppliers. And we look forward to a lasting and fruitful relationship with them."
Among the Mussel Adhesive Protein based matrix (MAPTrix®) ECM line of products are reagents with genetically incorporated bioactive peptides (recognition peptides) that mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM) activity of collagen, fibronectin, laminin, and vitronectin proteins. The bioactive peptide mimics the extracellular matrix (ECM) protein and provides for cell attachment, spreading and growth. The mussel adhesive protein confers biocompatible adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces.
A MAPTrix® surface coating application promotes cell plating efficiency, improves morphology, and enhances cell proliferation under serum-free conditions in primary cell cultures such as hepatocytes or neural cells.
