Falcon Microplate 96 Well Flat Bottom TC Treated with Lid 75 Plates

Falcon 96-Well Clear Flat Bottom Cell Culture Microplate (TC-Treated, with Lid)

The Falcon 96-Well Microplate is a high-performance laboratory standard engineered for the consistent attachment, expansion, and analysis of adherent mammalian and insect cell lines. Featuring a proprietary vacuum-gas plasma Tissue Culture (TC) treatment, the growth surface is modified to be permanently hydrophilic, promoting superior cell spreading and uniform monolayer formation. Each plate is manufactured from crystal-grade virgin polystyrene and includes a specialized low-evaporation lid designed to maintain a stable environment and minimize "edge effects." Certified sterile and non-pyrogenic, these plates provide the reliable data integrity required for drug discovery, high-throughput screening, and high-resolution inverted microscopy.

Technical Performance and Design

• Validated TC-Treated Surface: The proprietary surface treatment provides a consistent, negatively charged chemistry that ensures robust cell attachment and phenotypic stability across diverse cell types.

• Labyrinth Lid Technology: The included lid features a unique labyrinth seal and condensation rings that permit necessary gas exchange (O2/CO2) while significantly reducing evaporation and preventing well-to-well cross-contamination.

• Exceptional Optical Clarity: Produced from medical-grade polystyrene with a precision flat-bottom geometry, providing an ideal path for high-resolution imaging and bottom-reading plate readers.

• Standardized ANSI/SLAS Footprint: Fully compatible with automated liquid handling workstations, robotic stackers, and plate washers, ensuring seamless integration into high-throughput (HTS) workflows.
