BD Falcon™ Cell Culture Dishes
 |
Designed for cell culture
- Flat, distortion-free optics
- Lids designed for optimal gas exchange
- Stacking rings allow for easier stacking and handling
- Vacuum gas plasma treatment permanently and consistently modifies the cell growth surface
- Standard tissue-culture surface is hydrophilic and contains a variety of negatively charged functional groups that support cell attachment and spreading
- Primaria tissue-culture surface additionally incorporates nitrogen-containing functional groups. It has been shown to support improved attachment, spreading, and differentiation of some cell types

Easy-Grip Dishes
The unique design and frosted rim found on BD Falcon easy-grip dishes improve the handling of small dishes. The ability to pick up a small dish conveniently without accidentally removing the lid allows you to work faster and improves aseptic manipulation. |

A sensitive clonogenic assay[ 1 ] using MRC-5 cells, a diploid human fibroblast line, is used to validate the manufacturing process for each BD Falcon™ TC product. Routine testing of standard TC products is performed by testing growth to confluency at 72 hours with MRC-5 or WI-38 cells, a diploid human lung fibroblast cell line. The surface chemistry of each lot of BD Primaria™ products is confirmed by ESCA.

- Nonpyrogenic
- Sterilized by gamma irradiation
- Packaged in peel-open, medical-style bags
- Crystal-grade polystyrene
- If you work with 35 mm or 60 mm dishes, try our easy-grip dishes. For more information or to receive a sample, call Technical Services at 800.343.2035.
- Nontreated polystyrene products are equivalent to bacteriological-grade polystyrene products. BD Falcon offers dishes for in vitro fertilization that are certified nonembryotoxic. Certification is based on a statistically relevant sample taken from each lot that is tested for embryotoxicity. Click here for additional information.
