Corning Microplate 96 Well Sterile Individually Sealed Polystyrene Case of 24 Plates
Corning 96-Well Round Bottom Ultra-Low Attachment Microplates, Sterile (7007) – Case of 24
The Corning 96-Well Clear Ultra-Low Attachment (ULA) Microplates (7007) are specialized, high-purity microplates designed for 3D cell culture formation, spheroid culture, suspension cell line maintenance, and non-adherent biological assays. Precision-molded from clear virgin polystyrene, these microplates feature Corning's proprietary Ultra-Low Attachment surface—a covalently bonded, hydrophilic, biologically inert hydrogel layer that prevents cell adhesion, protein absorption, and enzyme activation. The round-bottom well geometry promotes natural cell aggregation into uniform single spheroids per well. Supplied as a case of 24 individually sealed, sterile plates with matching lids, this consumable line offers certified contamination-free consistency for advanced cell-based screening and stem cell research.
Technical Performance & Surface Mechanics
- Covalently Bonded Hydrogel Surface: Formulated with an ultra-low binding hydrogel matrix that minimizes non-specific protein binding and prevents anchorage-dependent cells from attaching to well surfaces.
- Round-Bottom Well Geometry: Concave bottom profile encourages cells to settle at the center of the well, facilitating consistent, central 3D spheroid and organoid assembly.
- Optically Clear Virgin Polystyrene: Precision-molded for high optical clarity, enabling high-resolution microplate reader measurements, brightfield imaging, and automated microscopy.
- Vented Non-Reversible Lid: Includes matching lids with molded condensation rings that maintain sterile gas exchange while minimizing evaporation and cross-contamination.

Key Benefits & Applications
- 3D Spheroid & Organoid Culture: Ideal for generating reproducible, single-spheroid models for cancer research, drug toxicity screening, and stem cell differentiation.
