Corning has brought out the High Yielding Performance Flask Manual (Hyperflask M) cell-culture vessel.
Like its predecessor, the Hyperflask M features a novel multi-layer design that has the same overall dimensions as a standard T175 flask but grows approximately 10 times as many cells.
To meet the specific needs of bench-top users, the new Hyperflask M features an ergonomic cap that requires less torque to seal the cap to the vessel.
It also has a new adaptor grid that allows for faster filling and emptying, while reducing foam generation.
Additionally, each Hyperflask M vessel has an individual serial number that can be read by the unaided eye or by a handheld barcode reader.
Additional features of the Hyperflask M cell-culture vessel include: USP ClassVI Materials - moulded and assembled in a certified class 100,000 clean room; sterility - gamma irradiated to sterility assurance level (SAL) 10-6; clean room packaging - each pack is double bagged; innovative 10-layer design - 10 interconnected polystyrene growth surfaces; optimum cell attachment and growth - treated with the Corning Cellbind Surface; increased cell yield -10-fold higher cell yield increases productivity and capacity; and time and space savings - Hyperflask M reduces processing time and incubator storage space by handling one flask compared with 10 traditional 175cm2 flasks.
