Applikon Deep-Well MicroFlask Systems Sandwich Covers with Layers

Increase your incubator and shaker productivity without sacrificing culture quality!

Significantly reduce your evaporation loss rates in your samples to less than 2%
Improve consistency for all wells on titer plates when compared to standard titer plate experiments
Versatile system accepts 24/96 low-well plates or deep-well microtiter plates
Improve gas transfer in microtiter cultures

Replace roller bottles and shake flasks with these systems! The MicroFlask is used for cell culture and microbial cultivation and uses microtiter plates for easy operation, flexibility, and reproducible results. The benefits of this system include no well-to-well cross-contamination, low and uniform evaporation rates, well-to-well reproducibility and excellent gas transfer to each culture. Stackable design allows for up to four plates under each clamp, allowing flexibility for your research.

For microbial cultures, bioreactors with microbial cultivations can require an air supply of up to two working volumes per minute. The MicroFlask sandwich covers allow for a headspace refreshment rate of 1 to 2 culture volumes per minute. This refreshment rate secures oxygen concentrations of at least 18% (v/v), even with oxygen uptake rates of 40 mmol 0₂/L^-1 min^-1.

For cell cultures, the MicroFlask permits optimal gas transfer, and also minimizes evaporation from your plate. You can grow cells several weeks in a single plate without contamination! Deep-well plates constructed of high-purity polystyrene are ideal for cell culture applications.

System setup is easy. The clamp mounts to your existing orgital shaking platform and securely holds microtiter plates in place. Orbital shaking platforms are ideal because this motion will increase the gas-liquid transfer, to provide uniformity in conditions across each well. Simply order a clamping device and sandwich covers (one cover per plate).Sandwich Covers with Layers
These sandwich covers have re-usable layers. They include a stainless steel lid for rigid support, a microfiber cotton layer, ePTFE (0.3 µm pores) layer for sterility, and a soft silicone layer to seal the system. All components can handle repeated autoclaving.
