Sterilin has unveiled the Iwaki range of glass cell culture and biotechnology products.
Offering the superior optical clarity of an ultra-thin (0.175+/-0.02mm) and uniform glass base compared with conventional polystyrene-based products, Iwaki glass-based dishes and multiwell plates are ideal for high-transmittance microscope scanning.
They allow the fluorescent measurement of live and dead cells at a higher magnification than can be achieved through plastic dishes.
The design of the culture plates, with their low-based black frame and chimney-well design, reduces well-to-well cross-talk and contamination.
The wells are less than 0.5mm above the bottom line of the plate's outer frame, and are suitable for many applications, including cell-based assay detections, fluorescent detections, DNA protein interactions and receptor-ligand recognition through fluorescent probes.
