Corning Culture Flask 75 cm2 Vent Cap U-Shaped 8 Flasks

The Corning 3814 Culture Flask is a specialized cell culture vessel designed to facilitate advanced three-dimensional (3D) cell culture and applications where minimal cell attachment is desired. This flask features a unique U-shaped flask body and offers a 75 cm² surface area for cell growth.

A crucial characteristic of this flask is its ultra-low attachment (ULA) surface, which is achieved through a covalently bound hydrogel layer. This innovative hydrogel effectively inhibits cellular attachment, preventing cells from adhering to the flask surface and thereby promoting the formation of spheroids, organoids, or other 3D cell aggregates. Beyond inhibiting cellular attachment, this ULA surface also minimizes protein absorption, enzyme activation, and cellular activation, ensuring that the cells remain in a more native, unperturbed state. The flask is also equipped with a vent cap, which allows for sterile gas exchange, crucial for maintaining optimal physiological conditions within the culture while preventing microbial contamination.

The Corning 3814 Culture Flask is an invaluable tool for researchers in fields such as cancer research, stem cell biology, and drug discovery, enabling the study of complex cellular behaviors in a controlled 3D environment and minimizing unwanted surface interactions.
