PHC provides superior quality three-dimensional cell culture platforms with a variety of well shapes to enable spheroid culturing of your specific cell type.
PrimeSurface cell culture labware are ultra low attachment (ULA) dishes and plates that
promote scaffold free, self assembly of spheroid formation. The plates are pre-coated with
unique ultra hydrophilic polymer that enables spontaneous spheroid formation of uniform size
and shape. The ULA plates have high optical clarity making them highly suitable for bright field
imaging and confocal microscopy. In addition to the widely used 96 well U bottom plate, 96 well
plates are also available in V and M bottom, giving scientists a choice to form tighter spheroids
that are needed for specific cell types. For high throughput screening (HTS) needs, 384 well
plates are available in clear and white.

Features
PrimeSurface series are coated with a unique ultra-hydrophilic polymer that covalently bound to plastic surface,
and effectively inhibits cell attachment without cytotoxic and material degradation. The superior coating
technologies and manufacturing processes offer uniform spheroid/EB formation and smooth surface to obtain
clear cell images.

PHC is offering a new slit-well, ultra-low attachment 3D plate to facilitate easy handling of media exchange without disrupting spheroid formation.
Cell culturing involves frequent media replacement to provide nutrition to growing cells. In a standard 96 well ultra low cell attachment plate, media aspiration or dispensing has to be done extremely carefully to avoid disturbing the unattached spheroid, making this a time consuming operation.
With the introduction of PrimeSurface 96 Slit-Well Plate, media exchange for 96 well plates can be effciently handled with one step dispensing or aspiration for all 96 wells. This product can decrease pipetting time by over 80% while minimizing the risk of spheroid damage.
Key benefits
- Generate and maintain uniform spheroids
- Exchange media without disturbing spheroid formation
- Minimize media exchange time by simultaneous delivery of cell culture media to all 96 wells
- Use up to 1.5 times more media than in conventional plates, less media changes and more nutrients for the culture
Time Saving Design
Slit-Well structure allows simultaneous delivery of cell culture medium to all 96 wells.
Customer Testimony, Stanford University
“I found that the organoids grew equally sized in the slit well plate than with either 10cm dishes or traditional 96 well plates.
The interconnectedness of the wells also ensures more biological consistency of the different wells. The benefit is the much faster
time to feed cultures, which is a significant improvement over individual wells. Feeding also only requires a pipette, while feeding
traditional wells requires using media boats and multichannel pipettes, which is much more waste and cost in supplies. This can
add up for long term cultures. On the whole, I found them easy to use and very time, energy, and resource efficient.”
Features
Minimize media exchange effort and time without disturbing spheroid formation
Generate and maintain uniform spheroids in long-term cultures
Grow larger spheroids in the same well for long-term cultures.
Growing larger spheroids needs more media. Slit-Well plates allow 1.5 times more media volume compared to conventional plates providing more nutrients for larger spheroids.
