Corning® 100 mm Ultra-Low Attachment Culture Dish

Description

This 100 mm culture dish from Corning is engineered for three-dimensional cell culture workflows. Its primary function is to provide a surface that discourages cell adhesion, thereby facilitating the formation of cell aggregates like spheroids and organoids in suspension. The dish achieves this through a specialized manufacturing process where a hydrogel layer is permanently bonded to the polystyrene base. This creates a hydrophilic, neutrally charged environment that minimizes the adsorption of proteins and other biomolecules that typically mediate cell attachment. With a growth surface area of approximately 55 cm², it offers ample space for 3D culture experiments. The dish is supplied sterile and is applicable in research fields such as oncology, stem cell biology, and drug discovery, where mimicking in vivo tissue architecture is advantageous over traditional monolayer cultures.
