SMC spheroid formation and size development over time. (a) Spheroid formation in various cell number conditions per spheroid was observed daily for 1 week, and mean transverse cross-section area was plotted. All conditions form spheroids equally quickly. (b) Seeded cell number and spheroid size correlated as 1500 cells/spheroid yield the largest transverse cross-section area. Scale bar is 100 μm.
