Cell culture container

Abstract

This product is a container for culturing cells, consisting of a plate with internal flow channels and a matrix of cylindrical wells. As shown in the front view, AA cross-section, and BB cross-section, each set of four wells is connected via a flow channel formed in the plate, and each well functions as a port for transferring liquid containing culture medium, cells, etc., into and out of the flow channel within the plate. As shown in the reference EE cross-section showing the names of each part, region A, which is part of the flow channel shown in the AA cross-section, and region B, which is part of the flow channel shown in the BB cross-section, are connected via a porous membrane, allowing fluid to flow between regions A and B via the porous membrane. As shown in the reference oblique view showing an example of use, six of these products can be lined up and fitted into a case to be used as a 96-well plate with wells arranged in 8 rows and 12 columns.
