Fisherbrand Treated Tissue Culture Dish 100 mm Grip Ring Sterile Case of 300 Plates

Fisherbrand™ 100 mm TC-Treated Tissue Culture Dishes with Grip Ring (FB012924) – Case of 300

The Fisherbrand™ FB012924 is a research-grade cell culture vessel engineered for the expansion, maintenance, and microscopic analysis of anchorage-dependent primary cells and established cell lines. Manufactured from high-purity, optically clear virgin polystyrene, these 100 mm dishes undergo an advanced vacuum-gas plasma surface treatment to introduce hydrophilic functional groups, promoting uniform cell attachment and spreading. Supplied pre-sterilized in a high-volume facility case of 300 plates, this configuration features an integrated serrated grip ring to ensure secure manual and robotic manipulation during routine incubator staging.

Technical Performance & Design

• Vacuum-Gas Plasma Surface Treatment: Modifies the hydrophobic polystyrene matrix into a highly consistent, hydrophilic growth boundary. This treatment accelerates cell flattening, shortens lag phases, and maximizes surface harvesting yields.
• Ergonomic Slip-Proof Grip Ring: Outfitted with a protruding, serrated perimeter base ring that allows laboratory technicians to pick up the dish securely without accidentally removing the cover, mitigating bench drops and biohazard exposure risks.
• Vented Lid with Stacking Indicators: Features integrated molded spacers on the interior rim of the lid to permit continuous, balanced gas exchange ($CO_2$ and $O_2$) while a distinct upper stacking ring prevents top-heavy towers from sliding out of alignment inside incubators.
• Optical-Grade Planar Base: Engineered with exceptional bottom flatness and material clarity, enabling crisp focus tracking, high-resolution inverted phase-contrast microscopy, and automated high-content imaging sweeps.

Key Benefits & Applications

• Routine Adherent Culture Scale-Up: Ideal for scaling up monolayer cultures, harvesting cell lysates, or seeding transfection hosts like HeLa, HEK293, and primary fibroblast lines.
• Aseptic Technical Manipulation: The grip ring architecture facilitates smooth, single-handed lid manipulation under cleanroom laminar flow hoods and biosafety cabinets, streamlining media change protocols.
• Microscopic Visual Inspections: Exceptional side-wall and base uniformities minimize optical distortion and light scattering, allowing accurate tracking of cell confluency, morphology, and contamination anomalies.
• Safe Multi-Layer Transport: Stacking rings lock successive units together, allowing the safe transport of large sample batches from preparation hoods directly to thermal incubation chambers.

Fisherbrand™ is a registered trademark of Fisher Scientific (part of Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.). Part number FB012924 specifies the TC-treated 100 mm layout featuring an integrated grip ring. For suspension or non-adherent cell lines (such as hybridomas or lymphocytes), matching ultra-low attachment or non-treated bacteriological plates must be substituted instead.
