Falcon Petri Dish with Lid 150 x 15 mm Sterile Case of 100 Dishes

Falcon 150 x 15 mm Tissue Culture Treated Petri Dishes, Sterile (351058) – Case of 100

The Falcon 150 x 15 mm Petri Dish with Lid (351058) is a high-purity, optical-grade cell culture vessel engineered for large-scale tissue culture, anchorage-dependent cell expansion, and routine microbiological procedures. Precision-molded from virgin crystal-grade polystyrene, these extra-large culture dishes undergo a proprietary vacuum-gas plasma surface treatment. This modification alters the hydrophobic surface of the polystyrene to create a hydrophilic, negatively charged growth matrix that promotes uniform cell attachment, spreading, and monolayer formation. Supplied as a sterile case of 100 dishes packaged in 10 convenient sleeves of 10 dishes each, this consumable line provides certified contamination-free consistency for high-density cellular research, bioassays, and molecular cloning workflows.

Technical Performance & Structural Design

• Vacuum-Gas Plasma Surface Treatment: Features a permanently modified polystyrene surface that provides an optimal hydrophilic environment for primary cell strains, stem cells, and fastidious cell lines.
• Optically Clear Crystal Polystyrene: Manufactured to strict distortion-free standards, allowing clear, distortion-free microscopic observation and high-resolution automated image analysis across the entire growth area.
• Integrated Stacking Ring & Gas Exchange Lids: Outfitted with a precision-molded rim edge to facilitate stable, non-slip stacking inside incubators. The matching lid features subtle venting lugs that promote uniform gas exchange while minimizing evaporation and condensation.
• Heavy-Duty Non-Warping Walls: Designed with reinforced side walls to prevent physical deflection during warm agar pouring or handling with thick lab gloves under biosafety cabinets.
