Millicell offerings for cell culture and
growth

24-well plate and single-well inserts for cell culture assays are optimised to support suspension and adherent cell growth and differentiation

Millipore has announced the introduction of both a 24-well plate and new single-well inserts for cell culture assays These products are optimised to support suspension and adherent cell growth and differentiation

Additionally, the platform design enhances usability in a range of laboratory environments.

Both platforms incorporate track-etched thin film membranes for reliable monolayer formation, microscopically transparent membranes for easy cell visualisation and fluorescent-compatible plastics and membranes.

The 24-well plate is designed for maximum user convenience and includes features that maintain assay integrity.

Additionally, the 24-well Millicell cell culture plate has twice the membrane surface area compared with other 24-well plates.

This allows researchers to utilise greater cell mass, which more closely models cell behaviour.

The plates are automation compatible and reduce the risk of monolayer contamination with 'footed' membrane plates that remain elevated when disassembled from the feeder tray and raised-well edges for better tape seating.

Teardrop-shaped receiver wells eliminate air bubbles as plates are assembled.

The new hanging Millicell cell culture inserts are available in six, 12 and 24-well sizes.

Low throughput assays can be performed in the single-well unit.

Design features include an off-center insert for easier media addition and removal.

Standing inserts also are available.
