Fisher Scientific Petri Dish Surface Treated 143 cm2 Culture Area Polystyrene Case of 120 Dishes

Fisherbrand 150 x 15 mm Tissue Culture Treated Petri Dishes, 143 cm2 Culture Area, Sterile (FB012925) – Case of 120

The Fisher Scientific FB012925 Petri Dishes are high-purity, optical-grade cell culture vessels engineered for large-scale cell expansion, primary tissue harvesting, and anchorage-dependent cell lines. Precision-molded from virgin crystal-grade polystyrene, these 150 x 15 mm dishes undergo a specialized surface treatment that modifies the polymer matrix into a hydrophilic, negatively charged growth plane. This vacuum-gas plasma modification ensures uniform cell attachment, spreading, and high-density monolayer development across the entire 143 cm2 culture area. Supplied as a bulk case of 120 sterile dishes (packaged as 12 inner sleeves containing 10 dishes each), this consumable line provides certified contamination-free consistency for high-throughput cell biology, bioassays, and molecular workflows.

Technical Performance & Structural Design

• Hydrophilic Surface Treatment: Features a permanently modified surface that promotes consistent cell adhesion and morphology 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 imaging across the 143 cm2 cell growth surface.
• Vented Lid & Stacking Rim Design: Engineered with integrated lid ventilation lugs that facilitate uniform gas exchange while reducing condensation buildup. The raised lid outer rim allows secure, non-slip stacking inside incubators.
• Rigid Non-Warping Walls: Designed with heavy-duty side walls that resist thermal deflection during warm agar dispensing or manual handling with laboratory gloves inside biosafety cabinets.

Key Benefits & Applications

• High-Yield Cell Harvesting: The expansive 143 cm2 surface area allows researchers to generate large volumes of cell lysate, RNA/DNA extractions, and protein samples from a single culture dish.
• Anchorage-Dependent Line Maintenance: Optimized for reliable adhesion rates in standard mammalian cell lines (e.g., HeLa, CHO, HEK293) as well as primary cell cultures.
• Microarray & Large-Scale Bioassays: Accommodates large-diameter filter membranes, colony formation assays, and extended-area agar diffusion screenings.
• Aseptic Cleanroom Packaging: Sealed in heavy-gauge inner bags of 10 dishes, making it easy to transfer supplies into sterile laminar flow hoods without bringing external dust into working zones.
