ViscoCell™Injectable Stem Cell Hydrogel for Joint and Soft Tissue Repair

ViscoCell™ is an advanced hydrogel-based delivery platform designed specifically for high-motion, load-bearing environments like joints. Its viscosity and crosslinking properties mimic synovial fluid, keeping encapsulated cells in place longer and improving regenerative outcomes—particularly in orthopedic applications like osteoarthritis.

Primary Benefits of ViscoCell™

Engineered to meet the challenges of intra-articular delivery, ViscoCell™ optimizes retention, protection, and efficacy of regenerative cell therapies.

Joint-Optimized Retention

Formulated to match healthy synovial fluid’s rheological profile to withstand mechanical stress in weight-bearing joints.

Localized Immune Protection

Microbeads protect encapsulated cells from host immune responses until the cells are released.

Controlled, Sustained Release

Supports extended therapeutic impact with fewer injections.

Real-World Applications

Designed for high-motion environments like joints, ViscoCell™ enhances the precision and staying power of cell therapies—helping extend therapeutic impact in orthopedic and soft tissue applications without the need for repeated interventions.

  • Osteoarthritis Therapy

    Preclinical studies show improved cartilage regeneration and smoother joint surfaces.

  • Joint Preservation

    Keeps cells localized for longer, maximizing therapeutic effect.

  • Soft Tissue Repair

    Applicable in tendons or ligaments where precise placement and durability matter.

  • “Encapsulation with ViscoCell™ turned a modest response into full joint regeneration in our rat model, proving its potential to transform how we treat osteoarthritis.”
