Thermo Scientific Nunc Multidish Non-Treated Sterile Microplate 12 Well Case of 75 Dishes

Thermo Scientific™ Nunc™ Multidish 12-Well Non-Treated Clear Flat-Bottom Microplates with Lids, Sterile (150200) – Case of 75

The Thermo Scientific™ Nunc™ 150200 Multidish is a high-purity, multi-well laboratory consumable engineered for suspension cell culture, diagnostic assays, sample staging, and chemical crystallization workflows. Precision-molded from premium, optical-grade virgin polystyrene, this 12-well microplate features a flat-bottom well geometry that eliminates optical distortion and light scattering during inverted microscopic scanning. Crucially, these plates feature a non-treated, hydrophobic plastic surface that actively minimizes cell attachment, making them the premier framework for growing non-adherent cells, hybridomas, or embryoid bodies. Supplied as a commercial case of 75 individually sealed plates with matching lids, this model delivers absolute aseptic security for clinical, diagnostic, and academic research cleanrooms.

Technical Performance & Design Architecture

• Hydrophobic Non-Treated Growth Matrix: The virgin polystyrene surfaces remain completely unmodified (non-TC treated). This provides a native hydrophobic barrier that prevents anchorage-dependent cells from anchoring or grounding, ensuring uniform spherical growth in suspension.
• Patented Airvent Non-Reversible Lid: The included clear polystyrene lid incorporates a non-reversible design configuration paired with engineered air vents. This facilitates continuous, balanced gas exchange and aerobic respiration while minimizing cross-well evaporation and droplet fall-back.
• Raised Well-Rim Moisture Barriers: Each well is bordered by a raised structural rim that matches corresponding condensation rings in the lid. This mechanical barrier blocks localized fluid travel between wells, completely preventing cross-contamination from physical splashing or shaking.
• Individually Bagged Aseptic Protection: Every plate and lid assembly is pre-sterilized via validated gamma irradiation and hermetically sealed in a standalone polymer pouch. This safeguards the pristine, nuclease-free boundary of each unit until it is peeled open inside a biosafety cabinet.

Thermo Scientific™ and Nunc™ are registered commercial trademarks of Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. Catalog number 150200 specifies the non-treated, flat-bottom 12-well configuration provided with a lid. For specialized applications requiring cell attachment or surface anchorage, companion tissue culture-treated (TC) multi-well configurations (such as Nunc SKU 150628) must be integrated into the procurement pipeline instead.
