Corning Cell Lifter 19 mm Blade Width Individually Wrapped Case of 100

Corning 19 mm Blade Cell Lifters, Sterile, Individually Wrapped (3008) – Case of 100

The Corning 19 mm Blade Cell Lifters (3008) are sterile, single-use harvesting tools designed for gentle, highly efficient collection of attached cell monolayers from culture dishes, microplates, and cell culture flasks. Precision-molded from high-grade polyethylene, these cell lifters feature a rigid 19 mm flat blade engineered to scrape and lift delicate primary cells, stem cells, and anchorage-dependent cell lines without causing mechanical shear damage or cell lysis. The ergonomic handle provides precise tactile control inside biosafety cabinets, making them an essential alternative to enzymatic digestion (e.g., trypsinization) when intact cell surface markers, receptors, or viability are critical for downstream assays. Supplied as a case of 100 individually wrapped, sterile cell lifters, this product line guarantees certified contamination-free performance for tissue culture workflows.

Technical Performance & Key Attributes

• Gentle Non-Enzymatic Harvesting: Enables rapid mechanical harvesting of adherent cell cultures without altering surface receptor proteins, cell membrane integrity, or downstream cell viability.
• 19 mm Flat Polyethylene Blade: Features a sharp, flexible 19 mm wide blade edge that conforms smoothly to flat culture surfaces, maximizing cell yield per pass.
• Ergonomic Handled Design: Outfitted with a rigid, lightweight handle designed to maintain firm control and prevent hand fatigue during high-volume culture processing.
• Optimal Vessel Compatibility: Specially proportioned for easy maneuverability inside 60 mm, 100 mm, and 150 mm cell culture dishes, as well as multi-well plates.

Key Benefits & Applications

• Flow Cytometry & Cell Surface Marker Analysis: Preserves delicate cell surface antigens and receptors by eliminating enzymatic cleavage caused by trypsin or accutase.
• RNA, DNA, and Protein Extraction: Facilitates immediate in-dish cell harvesting directly into lysis buffers for genomics, transcriptomics, and Western blot sample preparation.
• Stem Cell & Primary Cell Culture: Ideal for harvesting sensitive cell types where enzyme exposure leads to poor re-attachment or spontaneous differentiation.
• Individually Wrapped Aseptic Assurance: Individual medical-grade pouch packaging preserves 100% sterility until opened inside biosafety hoods.
