ADS Biotec Launches White Paper on Revolutionary use of HANABI AVATAR™ Organoid Growth Media


January 23, 2025 – Omaha, USA: ADS Biotec, a global leader in development of automated solutions and consumables for use in cytogenetic, pathology and research laboratories is pleased to announce the release of its latest white paper titled “Use of HANABI AVATAR™ Organoid Growth Media in the imitation of structural, chemical, and physiological aspects of organs.”

Organoids have become indispensable tools in modern biomedical research, enabling advancements in drug discovery, disease modeling, and personalized medicine. ADS Biotec, in collaboration with the Transcriptomic Research Lab at the National Cancer Institute in Milan, Italy, conducted a study to compare the performance of the newly available HANABI AVATAR™ Colon Organoid Culture Media from ADS Biotec against media made in the lab, which had been optimized over many recipe iterations, in a combined cultured study. The results of the study are published in this white paper which delves into the application of the HANABI AVATAR™ Colon Organoid Growth Media, a unique formulation designed to support the robust growth, viability, and reproducibility of colon organoid cultures. 

Key Highlights of the White Paper Include:

Extended Growth Performance: Extended culture of colon organoids in HANABI AVATAR™ Colon Media results in improved growth across different colon disease conditions, both benign and malignant.

Reproducibility and Reliability: Culture with HANABI AVATAR™ media increased proliferation while maintaining comparable expression of glandular and colorectal markers.

Case Studies: Experiments were conducted using patient-derived organoids.

Sustainability: Enhanced media performance shortened culture times, reducing resource consumption, waste production, labor demands, and energy usage.

During the study, three different disease states of colorectal cancer (adenoma, colorectal cancer, metastasis) were utilized to examine whether the HANABI AVATAR™ Colon Organoid Media from ADS Biotec improved organoid culture. In long-term cultures, for each of the three conditions, the HANABI AVATAR™ media resulted in greater numbers of organoids being grown than with the Lab Made media.
