Falcon Microplate with Lid 96 Well Total of 65 Plates
The Falcon 353227 Microplate is a 96-well plate specifically designed for various cell culture and assay applications requiring sterile conditions. This microplate is constructed from clear polystyrene, a common material for cell culture labware due to its optical clarity, which allows for easy microscopic observation of cell growth. A key feature of this microplate is its U-bottom well design. This U-shape is often preferred for applications involving cell aggregation, spheroid formation, or when efficient mixing is desired, as it facilitates the collection of cells or samples at the center of the well. The inclusion of a lid provides a crucial barrier, helping to maintain a sterile environment within the wells, minimize evaporation, and reduce the risk of contamination during incubation or storage. These Falcon microplates are tissue culture-treated, a surface modification that promotes optimal cell attachment and growth for adherent cell lines, but also supports cell aggregation in
