1. A kit for seeding a plurality of cells onto a porous hydrophobic support comprising:
- (1) a hydrophobic support having pores that are at least partially pre-filled with liquid;
(2) media; and
(3) cells in media;
wherein the pores of the support are at least partially pre-filled with liquid prior to contacting the media or the cells in media by introducing liquid to the support and partially removing the liquid from the support by application of a centrifugal force.
