Corning Culture Dish with 20 mm Grid 150 mm x 25 mm 9 Packs of 10 Dishes - Total of 90 Dishes

Falcon 150 mm Gridded Cell Culture Dish – 150 mm x 25 mm, Integrid 20 mm Molded Grid, TC-Treated, Polystyrene, Sterile (MPN: 353025)

The Falcon 353025 (manufactured by Corning Life Sciences) is a premium, large-format cell culture dish precision-engineered for high-yield mammalian cell culture, colony cloning assays, and automated counting workflows. Molded from premium, crystal-grade virgin polystyrene, this oversized 150 mm x 25 mm dish features a total cell growth surface area of approximately 152 square centimeters and includes an integrated Integrid 20 mm molded grid layout across the inner base. The inner surface undergoes a validated physical vacuum-gas plasma treatment to render the plastic permanently hydrophilic, optimizing it for uniform adherent cell attachment, spreading, and monolayer formation. Supplied sterile in medical-grade peel-open packaging, this specialized tissue culture dish establishes consistent performance for scale-up screening lines.

Technical Performance and Design

• Integrid 20 mm Base Grid Layout: Features a permanent, molded-in 20 mm locator grid across the internal bottom area. This geometric architecture enables rapid, systematic specimen positioning, manual or automated colony counting, and precise cell tracking metrics without ink line distortions.

• Vacuum-Gas Plasma TC Treatment: Every dish undergoes a proprietary vacuum-gas plasma surface chemistry modification to introduce oxygen-containing functional groups into the polystyrene backbone, providing an optimal hydrophilic surface for anchorage-dependent primary lines and cell strains.

• Optically Pristine Flat Surface: Fabricated from high-purity, crystal-grade virgin polystyrene to ensure a perfectly flat, distortion-free viewing plane. This uniform horizontal tolerance allows for clear, artifact-free microscopic tracking under phase-contrast or automated scanning platforms.

• Aerobic Gas Exchange Ventilation Cover: The matching protective lid is designed with integrated structural venting features that facilitate stable, uniform aerobic gas exchange within CO2 incubators while managing and minimizing ambient fluid evaporation rates.

Key Benefits and Applications

• High-Yield Adherent Scale-Up: The premier large-format choice for scaling up anchorage-dependent mammalian cell lines, generating massive cell pellets for downstream protein extraction, or scaling lentiviral production lines.

• Colony Forming Efficiency (CFE) Assays: The integrated 20 mm grid provides an excellent mathematical matrix for tracing, counting, and calculating colony cloning efficiency profiles following transfection or radiation profiling loops.

• Anti-Slip Mechanical Stacking Rings: Outfitted with a raised interlocking structural ring profile along the upper edge of the cover, enabling laboratory technicians to build stable, vertical plate towers inside crowded incubators without tip hazards.

• Aseptic Protection Packaging: Sealed inside heavy-duty medical paper/plastic peel wrappers to guarantee an uncompromised biological barrier, making it safe for immediate introduction into clean laminar flow hoods.
