Biophysical models can predict the behavior of cell cultures including 3D cell cultures (3DCCs), thereby reducing the need for costly and time-consuming experiments. Specifically, mass transfer models enable studying the transport of nutrients, oxygen, signaling molecules, and drugs in 3DCC which requires defining boundary conditions (BC) between the 3DCC and surrounding medium. However, accurately modeling the BC that relates the inner and outer boundary concentrations at the border between the 3DCC and the medium, remains a challenge that this paper addresses using both theoretical and experimental methods. The provided biophysical analysis indicates that the concentration of molecules at the inner boundary is higher than that at the outer boundary, revealing an amplification factor, which is confirmed by a particle-based simulator (PBS). Due to the amplification factor, the PBS confirms that when a 3DCC with a low concentration of target molecules is introduced to a culture medium with a higher concentration, the molecule concentration in the medium rapidly decreases. Liver spheroids are used as the 3DCC and glucose as the target molecule in the experiments. The PBS is leveraged to design these experiments, and results agree with our proposed theory and derived properties, particularly when having a higher medium volume.
