Culture Plate with Lid 24 Well PS 9 Packs of 5 Plates Each - Total of 45 Plates

The Corning 356414 Culture Plate is a specialized 24-well plate designed for the challenging cultivation of certain cell types. This plate is constructed from polystyrene (PS) and includes a lid to maintain a sterile, controlled environment.

The distinguishing characteristic of this microplate is its Poly-D-Lysine (PDL) coating. Poly-D-Lysine is a synthetic poly-cationic protein that serves as an artificial, positively charged surface for cell attachment. This coating is critical for enhancing the adhesion and differentiation of cell types that do not readily attach to standard tissue culture plastic, such as neurons, primary cell lines, and transfected cell lines that struggle with attachment. The PDL coating creates an optimal environment for growing these sensitive cells, promoting cell spreading and neurite outgrowth.

The Corning 356414 Culture Plate is a vital tool for neurobiology, stem cell research, and general cell biology labs where challenging or highly sensitive cell lines require a reliable, chemically defined substrate for optimal growth.
