OptiCell cell culture format is for growing, monitoring, and transporting cells.
It has two parallel gas-permeable, cell culture treated polystyrene membranes attached to a standard microtiter plate-sized frame.
Each side has a growth area of 50 cm²- a total 100 cm² on 75 µm thick membranes, 2 mm apart. System is barcoded for easy tracking and automation handling.
System’s thin profile design maximizes incubator space and reduces media consumption and the recommended media/cell fill volumes are 10 mL for the OptiCell and 30 mL for the OptiCell MAX.
Two resealing access ports provide closed growth environment with sterile fluid path, reducing risk of contamination.
Applications include transportation of live cells, short-term freezing and thawing of cells, cell imaging and staining, transfection and Hybridoma antibody production (OptiCell MAX).
