Corning ANNOUNCES NEW Corning®CellBIND® Surface PRODUCTS for Enhanced Cell Attachment

Filed under: North America, News by Subject — admin @ 9:30 pm

The Corning CellBIND Surface is a patented technology using a microwave process to improve cell attachment by modifying the polystyrene and incorporating more oxygen into the cell culture surface, rendering it more hydrophilic and increasing surface stability. The increased stability of the surface allows for more consistent cell attachment as cells are less likely to be removed during washing steps and media changes.

“At Corning we are focused on innovative market leadership, product quality and performance, and collaborative development efforts to ensure our customers’ needs are met,” said Lydia Kenton, Business Manager, Cells, Corning Life Sciences. “Our latest Corning CellBIND Surface technology clearly demonstrates our commitment to research and development and to working closely with our customers to understand what technologies they require to best do their jobs.”

The Corning CellBIND Surface is a nonbiological surface and does not require special handling or storage. Additional Corning CellBIND Surface products include roller bottles, flasks, and CellSTACK® Culture Chambers and , 96 and 384 microplates..

Corning Life Sciences helps customers succeed by providing innovative, high-quality products and service in the areas of polymer science, biochemistry and molecular biology, glass melting and forming, surface modification and characterization science. The business’ dedication to quality, technology, and innovation has enabled it to produce a comprehensive line of plastic laboratory disposables and reusable glassware that exceeds American Standard Testing Method (ASTM) standards for life science research.
