Corning® Elplasia® 24-well Black/Clear, Square, Plasma Treated, Microcavity Plate, with Lid

Description

The Corning Elplasia 24-well plate is a specialized tool for creating scaffold-free three-dimensional cell cultures, known as spheroids. Its design centers on a square well format, with each well featuring black side walls and a transparent bottom. This optical configuration is intended for compatibility with various imaging and detection systems. A key characteristic of this plate is the plasma treatment applied to the microcavity surface within each well. This process modifies the surface properties to promote consistent cell aggregation into spheroids, without the need for external gels or scaffolds. The included lid helps maintain a sterile environment and reduces evaporation during incubation. As part of the Elplasia series, this product is engineered to streamline the spheroid formation process through a straightforward protocol, aiming for reliable and reproducible results in applications like drug discovery and cancer research.
