VitroTEM
Graphene liquid cells at a click
VitroTEM is developing a breakthrough technology to study dynamic biological processes through electron microscopy. Electron microscopy is based on creating a vacuum to visualize material at the molecular level, this means that it is not possible to study for example living cells in medium as the liquid evaporates immediately under the vacuum.
VitroTEM has discovered a technology based on graphene, enabling the production of so-called Graphene Liquid Cell (GLC). Using GLC’s, scientists can visualize and investigate biological processes and even whole, living cells under the electron microscope. VitroTEM believes their technology can create a revolutionary change in the way we can look at the molecular dynamics of biology.

Horizon: building the next wave of biotech growth at the Biotech Campus Delft
A new development is on the horizon for the Biotech Campus Delft. With the working title Horizon, ASR Dutch Science Park Fund, together with dsm-firmenich and Planet B.io, is taking the next step in further strengthening the campus as a leading European hub where biotech innovation, collaboration, and scale come together.
High-level Government visit highlights Delft's strategic role in future industrial biotech growth
On 11 March, Erwin Nijsse, Director-General at the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate, visited Planet B.io. The visit aligns well with the Netherlands’ evolving political and economic direction and therefore he was joined by a broad delegation of colleagues from several ministries.
