Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ Corning Synthemax cell culture surface uses an active peptide acrylate for polystyrene binding to promote stem cell proliferation and differentiation._x000D_ Corning Synthemax-R Surface is a unique synthetic surface coated onto tissue culture treated cell culture flasks and multiwell plates. The surface chemistry is designed to mimic a cells′ natural environment with an extracellular matrix derived cell adhesion promoting peptide. The peptide acrylate coating creates a uniform active surface for stem cell attachment, growth and differentiation, especially in chemically defined media._x000D_ Synthemax-R Surface multiple well plates and flasks offer a synthetic alternative to biological coatings and/or feeder cell layers used in traditional stem cell culture. The proprietary surface coating technology ensures lot-to-lot consistency, facilitating reproducible results in laboratories._x000D_ Developed by Corning scientists, this new biomimetic surface benefits are:_x000D_ • Unique synthetic surface mimics natural cell environment_x000D_ • Supports expansion of undifferentiated stem cells into a specialized, differentiated cell type_x000D_ • Ready to use surface_x000D_ • 6 well format uniformly coated_x000D_ • Recommended working volume 1.9 mL to 2.9 mL_x000D_ • Nonreversible lids with condensation rings to reduce contamination_x000D_ • Individually wrapped_x000D_ • Sterilized by gamma irradiation (SAL 10-3)_x000D_ • 2 year shelf life_x000D_ • Amenable to automation_x000D_ • Eliminates the need and time for expensive coating_x000D_ Legal Information_x000D_ Corning is a registered trademark of Corning, Inc._x000D_ Synthemax is a registered trademark of Corning, Inc.
